Nathanaël Berthon said joining team-mate Gilles Magnus on the Race 2 podium at WTCR Race of Italy was just what their Comtoyou Racing squad deserved. Berthon finished runner-up to his Audi-powered colleague at Autodromo Vallelunga Piero Taruffi after a damaged tyre cost him a seemingly certain podium in Race 1.
Néstor Girolami got his bid to win the WTCR − FIA World Touring Car Cup back on track with his second victory of the season in the searing Italian sunshine.
Gilles Magnus led all the way in Race 2 at WTCR Race of Italy to score his second win of the WTCR – FIA World Touring Car Cup season at Autodromo Vallelunga Piero Taruffi. The Comtoyou Team Audi Sport driver followed up his third place in Race 1 with a perfect performance as Nathanaël Berthon finished second to make up for the podium he lost in Race 1.
Nathanaël Berthon set the pace in the first free practice session at WTCR Race of Italy as the drivers acclimatised to the Autodromo Vallelunga Piero Taruffi on what is the WTCR – FIA World Touring Car Cup’s first visit to the circuit. The Comtoyou DHL Team Audi Sport driver was fastest with a time of 1m15.284s around the 3.2-kilometre circuit track, to end up just 0.059s ahead of fellow Audi RS3 LMS ace Gilles Magnus.
Gilles Magnus is returning to the scene of one of the performances that marked him out as a touring car star when he contests WTCR Race of Italy at Autodromo Vallelunga Piero Taruffi this weekend. Magnus was selected to represent Belgium in the inaugural FIA Motorsport Games at Vallelunga in 2019 where he chased a gold medal in the Touring Car Category.
A star-studded line-up will take to Autodromo Vallelunga Piero Taruffi for WTCR Race of Italy this weekend. Here's a run down of who will be in action.
Rob Huff, who won Race 2 outright at WTCR Race of Portugal earlier this month, is on a high in the WTCR Trophy for independent racers after he moved into a 36-point advantage with his seventh category win from eight starts in Vila Real. The class for drivers with no financial backing from a manufacturer was introduced in 2020 and lists Jean-Karl Vernay and Gilles Magnus as its title winners to date.
Gilles Magnus went from the top to the bottom in the WTCR – FIA World Touring Car Cup – but has no plans to stay there for long. After scoring his second series victory at WTCR Race of Spain last month, Magnus arrived in Vila Real for WTCR Race of Portugal on a high. However, he soon realised that replicating his MotorLand Aragón success would be difficult due, in part, to his Audi RS 3 LMS carrying 40 kilograms of compensation weight in accordance with WTCR rules.
