The final round of the Touring Car
Endurance Series’ (TCES) inaugural
season took place at Automotodrom
Brno, where the Red
team took a clean sweep, grabbing the
Teams’ and Drivers’ titles in both the
overall classification and the TCR class.
The TCES results were declared final at
half distance of the 24-hour race, with
the NKPP Racing SEAT León driven by
Gijs Bessem, Harry Hilders and Rob
Rappange victorious, having completed
288 laps, nine more than the Red
León of Ivo and Rik
Breukers, Aronov and Krant. That
second place was all the Breukers
(father and son) needed to be crowned
champions.
The race went on, and by the time the
24th hour struck, the NKPP Racing
SEAT had completed 583 laps, winning
the TCR class and finishing in a
brilliant fifth place overall behind four
GT cars.
Second position in the TCR class went
to another SEAT, the TCC Racing car of
Schilliger, Kresnik and Suter, with the
Red car in third.
The 24-hour race was counting as the
final round of the 24H Series.
