Countdown to WTCR’s High Five with Thed Bjork

Thed Björk heads to Circuit de Pau-Ville next week (May 7-8) for the start of the fifth WTCR − FIA World Touring Car Cup season with the “same motivation” he had when he was gearing up to win the 2017 FIA World Touring Car Championship. Part of what is now a three-strong Cyan Performance Lynk & Co line-up following the addition of Ma Qing Hua to the squad alongside Santiago Urrutia, the 41-year-old ever-swift Swede is ready to push for more World Touring Car gold aboard his Goodyear-equipped Lynk & Co 03 TCR. Ad/> On winning the title…“I have all the possibilities in the team.

As the winner of last year’s Teams’ title we will try everything we can to defend the title. I have really good team-mates that will also push me and if you are going to win the title you have to beat your team-mates and then everybody else. I am as motivated now as was in 2016 when I was gearing up to be the world champion the following season.

I am so happy to be in that position, to have the same motivation.” WTCRCountdown to WTCR’s High Five with Daniel NagyYESTERDAY AT 16:08 On being prepared…“We feel prepared. It’s nice to start the season with everybody at zero. It also feels that we have some momentum now because we have quite a lot of races coming up.

It’s not like we have one race and then there’s a break. Everybody will be fully pushing to August and that’s really nice and personally that feels good. We figured out some small things on the car last year.
