A challenge for DSG cars will be part of TCR Europe

The promoter of the 2018 TCR Europe Series has announced that a dedicated challenge will be reserved for the drivers who compete using cars fitted with a DSG gearbox.
A separate class for the DSG cars was introduced in last year’s TCR Europe Trophy at Adria and was won by Giovanni Altoè in a Volkswagen Golf GTI.
The TCR Europe DSG Challenge will award points to the ten best drivers classified in each race, following the same scale adopted by the TCR Europe Series: 25 points to the winner, 18 to the second, 15 to the third and then 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, 1.
After each race, the best driver classified in the TCR Europe DSG Challenge will be invited onto the podium alongside the three overall finishers and will be awarded a trophy.
The final prize for the TCR Europe DSG Challenge will be announced in due course.
