Campos Racing enter TCR with Opel trio

Opel Astra TCRCampos Racing have confirmed they will enter a pair of Opel Astra OPC cars in the 2015 TCR International Series, having recently run the car during Balance of Performance (BOP) testing in Barcelona.

Campos, who are well-known for competing in the World Touring Car Championship, will run a pair of Astras in the first two Formula One supporting events of the season in Malaysia and China. The Spanish team will then expand to add a third car to its line-up from the first European event of the season at Valencia in May.

Ukrainian Igor Skuz has been confirmed as the team’s first driver. Skuz has raced in the FIA European Touring Car Cup for the past two seasons with Campos, taking two wins in 2014 on his way to third overall in the Super 2000 TC2 Turbo class.

Marcello Lotti, CEO of WSC Ltd, added: “We are very pleased to welcome Campos Racing that is a very experienced team. The Astra OPC has clearly a great potential and we wish them the best success.”
