Cazenave replaces Tielemans at Pau

By

Olivier Tielemans will not drive the World Touring Car Championship race at Pau this weekend. He will be replaced by Laurent Cazenave in the Wiechers-Sport BMW 320si.
“Tielemans cannot race in Pau because he is recovering from a minor health problem. Luckily we had the opportunity to make an agreement with Cazenave in such a short time,” Wiechers-Sport team manager Dominik Greiner said.

“We are happy with this, because we believe that the team will benefit a lot from his experience of the track.”

The 33-year old Cazenave has never before raced in the WTCC but has raced a lot on his home circuit Pau. He has achieved good results at the track in the French Super Production Championship and the FFSA GT Championship.
