ROUTE TO: IMOLA, ITALY

12 Sep 2009

The FIA World Touring Car Championship visits Imola for the third time after last year’s successful event that marked the reopening of the glorious racetrack after a two-year closure due to extensive renovation works.
On the WTCC’s first appearance on this track, in 2005, Alfa Romeo’s Fabrizio Giovanardi and BMW’s Dirk Müller shared victories.
The 2008 meeting saw Yvan Muller’s SEAT León TDI claim an important win in Race 1, while the second race recorded the historical triumph of James Thomson in the N.technology Honda Accord. The first – and only so far – victory in WTCC for a Japanese manufacturer.
A large crowd of 37,000 attended the event.
