This time, however, the front row pair
struck back and Borkovi
ć
quickly
took the lead. The Alfa Romeo is a lot
harder on its tyres than the other
TCR
cars and so once Borkovi
ć
had opened up a gap, it then became
a matter of managing the tyre wear
until the Serbian driver could cross
the line and take his first – and the
Alfa’s second – TCR victory. Lukoil
Craft-Bamboo again had two drivers
on the podium, but this time it was
James Nash who finished second
ahead of Valente.
After the first four races of the
season, the top three drivers are
separated by only two points:
Jean-Karl Vernay leads the Drivers’
series from Dušan Borkovi
ć
with
Roberto Colciago third.
The International Series now faces a
streak of five European events: Spa in
Belgium, Monza in Italy, Salzburgring
in Austria, Budapest in Hungary and
Oschersleben in Germany.
