GOODYEAR TYRE TEST FEEDBACK SUGGESTS WTCR DRIVERS CAN PUSH ALL RACE LONG
WTCR – FIA World Touring Car Cup drivers should be able to push all race long in 2020. That’s according to initial feedback from Goodyear’s successful two-day WTCR tyre test at the Parcmotor circuit in Castellolí, near Barcelona, earlier this month. To prepare for the upcoming season, which is due to fire into life at WTCR Race of Hungary from 24-26 April, Goodyear organised the two-day session in Spain where the five types of TCR car set for action in the 2020 WTCR were used for a series of qualifying and race simulations.

Weighing more than 215 tons, they were transported in 40’ high cube containers from Malaysia via a scheduled stop and vessel change in Singapore. With the full support of the WTCR’s Official Logistics Partner DHL, the NYK Wren arrived in the port of Antwerp, Belgium on 28 January. Click for full story.
