TCR cars in the FIA Motorsport Games’ Touring Car Cup
Twenty drivers will fight for medals in the Touring Car Cup, in the frame of the FIA Motorsport Motorsport Games’ inaugural edition. The event will take place in Italy, at Vallelunga’s Autodromo Piero Taruffi in the first weekend of November.
All drivers will be at the wheel of TCR-homologated cars, representing eight different brands: Alfa Romeo, Audi, CUPRA, Honda, Hyundai, MG, Peugeot and Volkswagen.
The entry list includes some Touring Car experts such as Tom Coronel, Mat’o Homola, Luca Engstler and Klim Gavrilov, but also drivers who have already proved competitive in TCR cars like Jessica Bäckman, Mason Filippi, John Filippi, Gilles Magnus and Enrico Bettera.
The sporting format of the event is based on two different qualifying sessions, each one determining the grid for the two races.
Race 1 will be held Saturday over 25 minutes plus one lap, Race 2 will follow Sunday over 30 minutes plus one lap.
Both races will award points that will be summed to determine the final standings of the Touring Car Cup. The first three drivers classified will receive gold, silver and bronze medals.
