WTCRRecast’s subscription-free streaming platform puts WTCR fans at the heart of the action8 HOURS AGO “Hungary was a good weekend for me, I scored important points because I have to play catch-up in the [standings], so I am happy about that,” said the 37-year-old. “It was a special event, being my home race. The atmosphere was fantastic, and it will give me memories for the future.

“We struggled a bit because the car balance was good in the corners and under braking, but we lacked speed on the straight. It is very difficult to fight with other cars like this. You could see in the races we were not very competitive as soon as we arrived at higher speeds, and this makes it very tricky to defend or attack.
