With only one race meeting to go –
22/23 October on the streets of Bangsaen
– the fight for the first TCR Thailand title
is extremely close. After the latest events
at Buriram and Chonbury, Jack Lemvard
of Vattana Motorsport has taken the lead
in the standings, only three points ahead
of Singha Motorsport Team Thailand’s
Carlo van Dam. Lemvard’s teammate
Narasak Ittiritpong is still mathematically
in contention, however with 50 points
available and a gap of 29, his chances are
only theoretical.
Series newcomer Kantadhee Kusiri made
an impressive debut in the TCR
International Series event at Buriram and
won both the Thai races in a dominant
fashion at the wheel of his Honda Civic.
Van Dam did not take part and this might
be the deciding factor in his duel against
Lemvard who dealt another blow to his
rival with a double victory at Chonburi’s
Bira International Circuit, where he
emerged as the winner ahead of
Ittiritpong and van Dam at the end of
two exciting races.
Lemvard and van Dam split by three points
