Competitors of the TCR Portugal series
took part in the opening event at
Braga’s Circuito Vasco Samerio that
featured four sprint races.
The pairing of Nuno Batista and
Francisco Carvalho proved to be the
more consistent team and won all four,
sharing a Veloso Motorsport SEAT León.
However, they were not easy victories
as several other cars were able to stay
on the winners’ pace, such as the
Volkswagen Golf of Manuel Gião and
Francisco Abreu, the Honda Civic of
José Rodrigues and the other SEAT of
Francisco Mora.
Batista and Carvalho make a clean sweep in Braga
