SHAOXING, China, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On October 25, the second race day
unfolded for the 2026 FIA TCR World Tour together with the Xiaomi‑sponsored CTCC
China Touring Car Championship at the Shaoxing Keqiao Round. Four major competitions—
the FIA TCR World Tour, TCR Asia Championship‑Asia Series (TCR Asia), TCR Asia Championship‑
China Trophy (TCR China), and the CTCC China Cup — delivered fierce on‑track action.
Roaring engines and cheers from the grandstands pushed this motorsport weekend in
the water‑town region to its climax.

This weekend, the CTCC China Touring Car Championship brought the FIA TCR World 
Tour to Shaoxing Keqiao. As a top‑tier touring‑car series under the FIA, the TCR
World Tour made its debut at Keqiao. Top drivers and competitive teams from Asia,
Europe and the Americas gathered at Zhejiang International Circuit, staging a world‑
class touring‑car showdown for this water‑town city.

A single event ticket extended race‑day excitement into the city’s consumer landscape.
During the event weekend, holders of event passes or race tickets enjoyed a wide
range of discounts at scenic spots, homestays, restaurants and other businesses.
This gave rise to the concept of "Explore Keqiao Through Motor Racing". Statistics
show that driven by the event IP, ticket‑led consumption and immersive cultural‑
tourism experiences, operating revenue for culture, sports and entertainment sectors
in Keqiao District surged by 111.6 % in the first half of 2026.

By hosting this premier motorsport event, Shaoxing Keqiao has evolved from "staging
a race" to "operating a city". The bond between motorsport and the city goes far
beyond pure competition. CTCC has returned to Keqiao for many consecutive years.
Drawing world‑class entry lists, it amplifies event‑related traffic. Through deep
integration of "motorsport + cultural‑tourism + consumption", on‑track speed translates
into tangible economic growth for the city. The race weekend has become a key driver
energizing Keqiao’s culture, tourism, sports and consumer sectors.

Global Stars Battle Across Rounds, Fierce Competition Ignites the Water‑Town Venue

Behind the barriers, drivers across the four championships rewarded fans with high‑
calibre racing. The FIA TCR World Tour delivered hard‑fought contests over multiple
rounds, with Geely, Hyundai N and CUPRA locking horns once again.

In Race 2, Aurélien Comte of SP Compétition took the victory. Norbert Michelisz 
of BRC Hyundai N Squadra Corse and Thed Björk of Geely China Star Racing finished
second and third respectively. Race 3 became a head‑to‑head duel between Hyundai
N and Geely. Mikel Azcona and Norbert Michelisz fended off attacks from the Geely
squad to secure a one‑two finish for BRC Hyundai N Squadra Corse, while Thed Björk
claimed another podium in third place.
