The 2022 FIA ETCR season has generated great expectations after three races. A few months ago, it was announced the name change (formerly Pure ETCR) that endorsed the category under the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile.
The previous campaign ended with Mattias Ekström as the main protagonist of the series after becoming the first official champion of the 100% electric touring car category, in conjunction with Cupra. Now, in the current campaign, the Spanish team is once again leading the competition, confirming its power and favoritism for the constructors’ championship.
In the drivers’ category, Ekström will have to battle hard against his teammate, Adrien Tambay, and Hyundai Motorsport’s Spaniard N. Mikel Azcona, who appear as the main competitors of the Swede for the rest of the battle, which has four races left to run.
