Thed Björk has been classified as the race winner of the first race of the 2025 Kumho FIA TCR World Tour following a post-race penalty for Lynk & Co Cyan Racing teammate Yann Ehrlacher.
“I was standing still at the start. Esteban (Guerrieri) in front of me couldn’t go, and I couldn’t go either. I had to avoid him and lost a lot of places, but I got to fight with the Mexican drivers and enjoyed it.
My car felt very good, I was happy with my overtaking, and to be able to climb the positions. For me it was fantastic, with three races this weekend there are 90 points at stake in the event, so I need to keep focussed on what I’m doing.
In Race 2 I’ll start from P10, so I’ll try to get away this time without stalling and then just go for it.”
