Files should have this easy. Tarquini's the only other driver near his level but he won't be allowed to "win" because of the car he's in.

I wonder how many people Kralev will crash into?

I think at Adria the Peugeot will be a beast. And the Golf is good at slowcircuits - Luca Engstler could be the darkhorse.

Had expected some Italian drivers like Baldan and Giacon.

But still looking forward to this event.

Good quality, very poor quantity.

Months ago many drivers (Baldan, Paulsen, Vesnić, Møller...) said they would have participated, but they aren't on the list.

Moller is selling his car, and don't know if Paulsen has fixed his car, and Vesnic RS3 was badly damaged at Zolder ETCC crash.

Dionisio and Berton were ex Superstars drivers
Berton has also raced with GT3 cars in recent years and it's a great addition

Altoe and Pelatti raced in the Cupra ST cup but i don't know about the two Sciaguato.

Briché should be the champion of the 308 cup France if i remember correctly. All these cars should have been rented by the Adria TCR Academy.

The two Sciaguato ran the Italian TCS Championship this year.

Good to see Berton, a very good driver.

Berton will not race in the Trophy Europe this week. He tested the Audi but then he was unable to find an agreement with the Adria Autodrome. Big shame

A shame not to see all of those entries appear, but still a good field.

Somebody needs to tell Scott Woodwiss that Giacomo & Giovanni are brothers!

Incredible result for Comte and Peugeot, in the last 308 RC race. Now waiting for 308 TCR.

Terrible mistake for Files with that move on Buri, he isn't used to do it. Still a great driver anyway, "sh*t happens".

Hyundai is a very strong car. Let's see it next year.

Nice for Comte and the Belgian Peugeot team.

Files move was too opportunistic. Shame for him otherwise would have won the title.

Huyndai is serious about TCR. Will be interesting to see which team will run the i30 next season.

For next season I hope there will be more entries and a third race. A standalone event like this needs some more track time.

What a surprise Comte with the Peugeot, he has done a great job. Tarquini and the Hyundai simply fantastic, the i30 is a very strong car

A good event, hope it will be even better in future

Very kind people around. Everybody congratulates Comte and nobody bashes Files. Files showed he is not up for the task. How much Files can learn when he fails determines how far he will go into achieving his goals. I doubt any factory team will pick him after this weekend at Adria.
