The fourth race meeting of TCR
Benelux took place in Luxembourg
at the Colmar-Berg semi-permanent
racetrack and saw four different
drivers celebrating race wins.
Newcomers to the championship
were 2015 TCR International Series
champion Stefano Comini – who
shared a WRT Volkswagen Golf with
Maxime Potty and claimed victories
in the Qualifying Race and the
third Sprint Race – and the Romeo
Ferraris-built Alfa Romeo Gulietta
of Fabio Marchiafava and Loris
Cencetti.
Stéphane Lémeret won the first
sprint race as he managed to keep
at bay Maxime Potty and Amaury
Richard. In the second race
Caprasse beat Potty by inches,
while A. Richard overtook Lémeret
for third place.
Comini claimed a comfortable
lights-to-flag victory in Race 3
ahead of Pierre-Yves Corthals and
Kris Richard (Lémeret’s co-driver).
In the fourth race a crash at the
start between Comini and Vincent
Radermecker prompted the safety
car and then the red flag. Corthals
won from K. Richard and Alexis
van de Poele. Half points were
awarded, as 75% of the race
distance was not completed.
In the championship standings,
Léméret is still in the lead with a
60-point margin ahead of Caprasse-
Corthals, while Potty lies fourth
with a gap of 118 points.
The next race meeting will take
place at Assen, Netherlands, on
October 22 and 23.
