TCR International Series Round 9: Zhejiang International Circuit
This weekend TCR International Series will visit Zhejiang International Circuit in China. Track was opened last year and it was built in Shaoxing.
Layout looks really good, especially twisted, up-and-down section between Turns 2 and 13 (this section look like rally stage or togue with mountain in close proximity of race track). Circuit length is 3.200km and it have 16 turns. Races will be 19 laps long. There was no TCR International races in China last year, but in 2015 TCR raced at Shanghai International Circuit, with Gianni Morbidelli (Honda Civic) on pole for Race 1. Morbidelli won Race 1 in front of René Münnich and Kevin Gleason making it Honda 1-2-3. Andrea Belicchi (Seat León) started Race 2 from pole. He won the race in front of Stefano Comini (Seat León) and Gianni Morbidelli (Honda Civic). For this weekend Attila Tassi (Honda Civic) will carry 30kg of Success ballast, while Norbert Michelisz (Honda Civic) will have 20kg. Dušan Borković (Alfa Romeo Giulietta) and Giacomo Altoè (Volkswagen Golf/Honda Civic) will have 10kg of Success ballast. Since Michelisz and Altoè will miss this round their ballast will not be allocated. China weekend will be supported by TCR Asia, TCR China and Audi R8 LMS Cup Timetable (CET) Saturday, 7 October Free Practice 1, 4:00am Free Practice 2, 6:00am Qualifying, 9:30am Sunday, 8 October Race 1, 8:30am Race 2, 10:05am Team/Driver news Giacomo Altoè has finished his TCR International season and he will not be present in China, while M1RA will be back at running 2 cars.
