The second event of the TCR Asia series took
place in Thailand at Buriram’s Chang
International Circuit and ended in a triumph
for Andy Yan (Liqui Moly Team Engstler
Volkswagen Golf Gti) who claimed pole position
and won both races, while the Team Thailand
Honda Civic of local hero Tin Sritrai – the
leader of the championship after the first event
– suffered from a series of technical issues.
Jack Lemvard (Vattana Motorsport SEAT León) –
one of the four TCR Thailand racers who joined
the field – was Yan’s most serious rival for
victory in the first race.
The double win helped Yan to jump to the top
of the standings with nearly double the points
compared to his closest competitors, Henry Ho
(Champ Motorsport Honda Civic) and Kevin Tse
(TeamWork Volkswagen Golf).
