Comtoyou Racing confirms Girolami, Coronel and Davidovski for TCR Europe

Comtoyou Racing will put three new generation Audi RS 3 LMS race cars on the TCR Europe grid this year for Tom Coronel, Franco Girolami and Viktor Davidovski.

“We remain very loyal to TCR Europe because it is a highly professional, high-level and at the same time enjoyable championship,” said Jean-Michel Baert, team principal.

“The championship’s relatively small staff work wonders, and the sporting level increases year upon year. These last few seasons we achieved excellent results with two titles in 2020 and a good hard fought second place last year. It goes without saying that our ambitions are once again focused on that direction.”

Coronel finished fourth for the team last year and will get two new team-mates for the 2022 season.

Girolami raced a Honda for PSS Racing Team last year, finishing as runner-up after a tough fight with champion Mikel Azcona.

“I’m delighted that Comtoyou Racing, Audi Sport, and Viktor Davidovski have put their trust in me for this 2022 edition of the TCR Europe,” said Girolami.

“I’m really looking forward to driving and getting the feel of the new Audi RS 3 LMS as also beginning to work with the team. I want to get as many kilometers under the belt as possible to put in a good performance in the first race in Portimão, Portugal. We face a big challenge ahead to defend the honour of the team and the make, so I will give it my all, 110%.”

Davidovski raced together with Girolami at PSS Racing Team last season, finishing 16th overall.

“First and foremost, I wish to thank Francois Verbist, who believes in me and offers me the opportunity to be a part of Comtoyou Racing and the Audi family,” said Davidovski.

“I have rather more experience and will be part of a fabulous team, and on top of that at the wheel of the new Audi RS 3 LMS. We will give it our all to earn the trust we have been granted. Finally, it is an honor for me to be teamed up with Tom Coronel and Franco Girolami.”
