Historic Chinese World Cup victory by Lynk & Co Cyan Racing

The victory in the FIA WTCR season opener on the streets of Marrakech, Morocco, has taken the Swedish driver to the points lead. "Everyone in the team has worked so hard during the winter and to win in the debut race of the all new Lynk & Co 03 TCR race car is a fantastic reward for all involved," said Thed Bjork.

"We were a bit surprised by our speed, especially as this is one of the toughest fields in the history of touring car racing. I can't thank everyone in the team enough, this is a fantastic start to continue building on for the remainder of the season that no doubt will be ultra-challenging."

The first of 10 FIA World Touring Car Cup weekends of 2019 resulted in one victory, three podium finishes, second place in the teams' standings and the lead of the drivers' standings for Lynk & Co Cyan Racing.
