The latest TCR Technical Bulletin, issued on April 5 by WSC Group's Technical Department allocated for the first time a BoP to the Honda Civic Type R FL5.
The new car designed and built by JAS Motorsport will start the season on the minimum racing weight of 1265 kg, with no ballast and a ride height of 80 mm.
Other changes to the previous BoP concerned four models.
Hyundai i30 N: -10kg of ballast (40 to 30kg); -10mm in ride height (90 to 80mm)
Hyundai Veloster N; -10kg of ballast (40 to 30kg).
Peugeot 308: -10kg of ballast (-40 to -50kg) – the lightest car with a Minimum Racing Weight of 1215kg.
Lynk & Co 03: -10kg of ballast (50 to 40kg) – the heaviest car with a Minimum Racing Weight of 1305kg.
On top of this, all systems performing lap time predictions and allow drivers to understand the performance of running lap times are now considered driving aids, and therefore are forbidden as per Art. 3.8 of the TCR Technical Regulations.
These changes are intended for immediate application in all TCR-sanctioned events.
