Taking the opportunity of a test session with Tom Coronel at the Adria Raceway, in order to prepare this weekend’s event at Oschersleben, the ROAL Motorsport team offered to Alberto Cerqui his first drive in the WTCC BMW 320 TC.
Cerqui, only 19-years old, is one of ROAL Motorsport’s regular drivers in the Superstars series in which he currently lies second in the points after claiming his first race win three weeks ago at Misano.
“I was very impressed by the WTCC car. Its strong points are the agility in changing direction and over the kerbs, the braking and cornering speed. The 1.6-litre turbo engine supplies the power in a very peculiar way and needs to adjust a bit the driving style. I thank the team for giving me this opportunity that I hope could be repeated in the future,” said Cerqui.
