2016 WTCC Race of Argentina
Race preview:
https://www.fiawtcc.com/race-preview...me-if-you-can/ Track facts: https://www.fiawtcc.com/event/race-of-argentina-2016/ Wonder if Lopez will take a double victory here. All in all this is a great circuit for on-track action, so looking forward to the event |

I am attending this race as I did in 2014 when López won both races. Would love to see him do that again. However, it looks unlikely
Pechito was also driving the C-Elysée through Buenos Aires streets this past weekend. |

For sure I will take some pictures and share! In fact I was at the Citroën C-Elysée City Tour in Buenos Aires last Saturday and I also have a couple of videos I took from the open top bus that was following the car: WTCC Citroën C-Elysée City Tour at Buenos Aires - Video 1 WTCC Citroën C-Elysée City Tour at Buenos Aires - Video 2 |

The 'WTCC Premium' app is now free.
http://www.touringcartimes.com/2016/...free-from-now/ Lets see if they manage to garner any more public interest with this move. Certainly increased my interest. Edit: tried it out, and it's clean and easy to use but am unimpressed with the video quality. Feel sorry for the 2 or 3 people who might have actually paid for this. |

Mauricio Lambiris will be replacement for Ferenc Ficza, who recently underwent surgery due to appendicitis. |

It's a shame, it's always good when we get drivers from national series turning up to race in their home race

Lopez was jerk when he forced Norbi out of the track (and no investigation...)

Agree. The WTCC is total BS
French tem with best cars on grid ordering French driver and 4 time WTCC champion not to attack Lopez so he could score win on his home race is BS. When will they ban team orders in racing I wonder... |

Forcing? Michelisz is, I think, the second best driver of this series right now. However, he let the door opened. And by the way, his race lap time was only 0,06s slower than Pechito's so... I love how everyone complains about Citroën being so much better than the rest but the only one making a difference is López. Muller hasn't even won a race this season yet.
Excellent weekend in Termas! Pole, from last to 5th and a win. Vamos Pechito! |

Don't get me wrong Lopez is great driver but Citroen approach to racing is BS.

Yesterday we reached the ridiculous! First of all lopez change engine and get penality for the race when he depaet tenth snd not first (which for normal people should be the first one csuse its made by qualifying) then the team order to dont worry of muller and finally he push out mixhelisz.
Speaking about first race i make my "compliment" to chilton who pushed on grass monteiro! |

Chilton would do that to a girl. You’ll be happy to know, it never wears off. Monteiro came from nothing.

Lopez was on the outside, Michelisz ran wide and made contact. Wasn't forcing off the track, but it was elbows out racing just like the other incident. It's part of the deal, Michelisz didn't whine about it so you shouldn't eather. Don't go boohoo but try to enjoy a race where there's actually some fighting rather than a procession...
