    They headed a historic 1-2-3 in the class in the first year Hyundai Motorsport has entered a trio of cars into the race. Team Europe, the defending class winning driver Mikel Azcona, Marc Basseng and Manuel Lauck. Team China – Hongwei Cao, Zhang Zhendong, Rainey He and Andy Yan completed the podium in third aboard the #832 Elantra N TCR.

     “We knew that a 1-2-3 finish in class for our Elantra N TCR teams was possible if we avoided mistakes and brought the cars to the finish. Mason, Harry, Bryson and Mark of Team Americas in the #831 had a very consistent race which was the key to their success in the end, and we know they could also be quick after Bryson took pole position from Qualifying,” Hyundai Motorsport Circuit Race Project Manager Julien Moncet said.

    “Manuel Lauck had an amazing first stint in mixed conditions to start building a good lead, but a technical issue – even though it was well handled by the team – would prove costly when the red flag stopped their comeback. Team China did an excellent job in the difficult situation, even as the least experienced line-up from our squad to complete the podium. It is unfortunate that after many months of preparation, including car preparation specifically for this event that the race was stopped due to weather conditions. It is something we can't control but nevertheless we have achieved an historical 1 2 3 in TCR class. Our drivers stayed out of the many incidents on track and showed again Hyundai Motorsport cars can complete at the highest levels and on such demanding track as the Green Hell,” the executive added.

    Hyundai Motor Philippines showcased the Elantra N TCR at the Manila International Auto Show 2024, which marked the entry of the Korean automaker’ high-performance sub-brand alongside the N versions of the sedan and Ioniq 5.

It is mated to an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission.
