The Swedish team PWR Racing will make its debut on the world stage, entering in the FIA WTCR with two CUPRA TCR cars.
“The team’s progress has been extremely fast since it was founded in 2012 and we are now heading for our first international season. I'm looking forward to it and I'm grateful for the trust that CUPRA Racing has put in us to represent their brand in WTCR,” said Daniel Haglöf, co-founder and CEO.
PWR Racing represented SEAT Sweden and CUPRA Racing in TCR Scandinavia with great success, winning three titles in the last two years. The team will continue to run two CUPRA cars in TCR Scandinavia alongside the WTCR programme.
“This is an important step for PWR Racing; to get the opportunity to represent the CUPRA brand on the international stage is a honour and a great testament to everyone that's been involved with the team over the years,” said team’s co-founder Peter Wallenberg.
The driver line up for WTCR will consist of a mix of experience and youthful talent; the two names will be announced shortly.
