Dusan Borkovic wins race two in Hungary from Ferenc Ficza

Dusan Borkovic took a comfortable win in the second race of the FIA European Touring Car Cup at the Hungaroring, taking a home win for the B3 Racing team ahead of race one winner Ferenc Ficza, in a race which was less eventful than the first.

Michal Matejovsky started from pole position for the reversed grid race in the Krenek Motorsport BMW 320si, but the Czech driver was spun out at Turn 1 by Baporo Motorsport’s Alexandr Artemyev, who despite the contact still emerged from the incident undamaged and in the lead.

Artemyev was now leading ahead of Borkovic and Ficza’s SEATs, with Borkovic making his move at the final corner on the first lap, with Ficza also passing Artemyev down into Turn 1 at the start of lap two, demoting the Kazakh driver to third.

Artemyev was now holding off Fulín’s Krenek SEAT for third before the inevitable drive-through penalty was handed out on lap three.

After retiring from race one from contact with Borkovic, Mat’o Homola had to start from the back for race two, and he drove through up to fourth position from 20th on the grid by lap five. Homola would lose one spot later on in the race on lap eight to Davit Kajaia’s TC2T class BMW 320 TC, with the Slovakian suffering with a front-left tyre rub hampering his pace dueas to slight contact with Borusan Otomotiv Motorsport’s Aytac Biter earlier in the race.

Kajaia therefore took his second win in the TC2T class today, while a win and a second for Ferenc Ficza means the Hungarian scored the most points in the Single-Make Trophy class on race day.

Peter Rikli won in the TC2 class in his Honda Civic, holding off he recovering BMW 320si of Michael Matejovsky for eighth, while Niklas Mackschin made it two from two in the Super 1600 class, again finishing ahead of Ulrike Krafft, both in Ford Fiesta 1.6s.

The next round of the FIA European Touring Car Cup takes place at the Slovakiaring on June 21st.
