“It’s great to have some international flavour in our team for the Albert Park race. René has proven himself in these types of cars all around the world, and he is really eager to try his luck against what will be a very competitive TCR field. We plan on entering our other two Honda Civic cars and will make confirm those drivers in the near future.” Daniel Wall, Wall Racing owner said.
