Andy Priaulx joins Lynk & Co Cyan Racing

Three-time World Touring Car Champion Andy Priaulx has joined Lynk & Co Cyan Racing for the 2019 WTCR. Priaulx will drive one of Cyan Racing's Lynk & Co 03 TCR race cars alongside already confirmed drivers Yvan Muller and Thed Björk.

"I'm delighted to become a Lynk & Co Cyan Racing driver and I have no doubt that we are in a strong position to fight for the overall title already in our first year," said Priaulx. "We have a tough job ahead of us, the competition is as tough as it has ever been in the WTCR. But I have followed Cyan Racing's process over the years and it was an easy decision for me to join them ahead of 2019."

Priaulx claimed three straight World Touring Car Titles in the 2005, 2006 and 2007 and has most recently raced in GT, claiming the bronze medal of the 2017 FIA GT World Endurance Championship.

"Andy is a true touring car legend and his track record speaks for itself. His mix of experience and raw speed will be vital to us. We are glad to have him onboard for the 2019 WTCR season that looks to become one of the toughest ever," said Christian Dahl, CEO of Cyan Racing.
