This season the main competitors for NEZ endurance and BEC titles are “Circle K milesPLUS Racing Team” in Porsche GT3 car and Latvian “Flash Racing” team with Lamborghini Huracan 24 points behind. But nevertheless we cannot forget about the the fastest TCR team “Skuba Racing Team” which with a very stable performance is having the same gap to the leaders as “Flash Racing”. All teams have prepared a strong driver set-up and are ready to fight till the finish line.

“Skuba Racing Team” will also try to protect their leader position to become the first-ever Baltic TCR class endurance series champions, but there are also “Noker Racing Team” and “DHL Racing” teams close behind.
