The BRC Racing Team-run squad expands its line-up to three Hyundai Elantra N cars for this weekend’s Kumho TCR World Tour-TCR Italian Festival event at Vallelunga.
The team’s regulars Norbert Michelisz and Mikel Azcona are joined by the 18-year-old Italian Marco Butti who is part of the Hyundai Motorsport Customer Racing Junior Driver programme.
Team Principal of BRC Hyundai N Squadra Corse Gabriele Rizzo said: “We are happy to be welcoming Hyundai Motorsport Customer Racing Junior Driver Marco Butti to our team for this weekend. It is a demonstration of our close co-operation with Hyundai Motorsport, and we are pleased to provide Marco with a platform to both showcase his talents and grow as a driver.”
Butti added: “I am thrilled to be joining the TCR World Tour event in Vallelunga. I am determined to apply everything I have learned so far in the Hyundai Motorsport Customer Racing Junior Driver programme and give it my all. To make my debut in the pinnacle of touring car racing with such an experienced and successful team as BRC Hyundai N Squadra Corse is an incredible opportunity, and to do so at home makes it even more special.”
