TCR Virtual: Manuel G贸mez is number 1 馃帴
WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 15 international finalists met for the 1st TCR Virtual Global Final in Horgen near Zurich. The RacingFuel Academy provided 15 identical race simulators for the elimination.
With Juan Manuel G贸mez, this first world championship title of the TCR Virtual Global Series goes to Argentina. The first champion thus not only took the attractive prize money. Honda factory driver Nestor Girolami was also able to congratulate him on site for winning a test drive on a race track in the Honda Civic TCR (top center gallery).
Winner flew 12 000 kilometers to the final
The champion also had the longest journey behind him. Juan Manuel G贸mez left Argentina for the first time in his life. After all, the 23-year-old flew 12,000 kilometers to compete against the other highly motivated finalists in the TCR Virtual Global Finals on Lake Zurich.
The incredibly fast and equally talented Lukas Mateja from the Czech Republic finished second, while Bartosz Groszek from Poland completed the podium.
Really thrilling races at the Racing Center
Wani Finkboner, founder of RacingFuel Academy AG and organizer of the TCR Virtual Global Finals: "What we experienced at the races was truly gripping motorsport at its best. Star guest Nestor Girolami was also able to see this for himself. We congratulate all the finalists for their commitment and skill, and of course especially Juan Manuel G贸mez. We can look forward to his feedback after the test drive in the real Honda Civic TCR."
