WTCC: Tom Coronel Returns in 2013

[Marco Bijl]

Tom Coronel will return in the FIA WTCC 2013, and is aiming for a top 3 classification after getting all the sponsorships arranged.

Coronel will be competing with the BMW 320 TC, run by Italian team ROAL Motorsports. Alongside with Coronel, Darryl OÝoung will be driving the teams second BMW and will be aiming for the victory in the Drivers Trophy the classification for Privateer drivers in the WTCC.

During the winter, the BMW has been stripped as much as possible to loose valuable weight. For the first time, the car is actually very near the minimal weight limit. This combined with the fact that the Chevrolet works team is no longer present, chances for a top classification are getting closer.

Tom will always return

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

But with this BMW being really dated now and I don't think he will play any significant role in the championship anymore.

Honda will continue where Chevrolet left unless the Seat's are good enough to fight for the win.

I don't care, I like his youtube channel.

Yeah he really puts a lot of time and effort in that. Wish more drivers would do that.

Tom? The guy selling washing machines? (just bought one from him).

 

[Peter]

He sells every thing, his bank account is big enough to sponsor the whole WTCC grid.

I hope Tom will have a chance to get the hondas!
I also think the hondas will doing well!
But maybe Tom can win some of the first races till honda will dominate the wtcc!
I think they should have weights for the winners so there can´t be a domination!
