Ehrlacher and Guerrieri combo a big boost for Münnich WTCR team

The combination of Yann Ehrlacher and Esteban Guerrieri could make the winning difference for ALL-INKL.COM Münnich Motorsport in the inaugural WTCR - FIA World Touring Car Cup presented by OSCARO.

That's the view of Team Manager Dominik Greiner, who has been impressed by their approach during pre-season testing.

"Yann and Esteban are already working professionally, hand-in-hand as team-mates so we are looking for a good season with them both," said Greiner.

Ehrlacher (pictured left with Guerrieri) was announced as a Münnich Honda Civic TCR driver on Sunday evening and will join forces with Guerrieri at the Friedersdorf-based squad.

"Logically we had several drivers on our list and the decision was not an easy one," said Greiner. "But I feel that with Yann we at ALL-INKL.COM Münnich Motorsport have chosen the best package and we welcome him to our team.

"A very talented, fast and motivated driver who has gone through a great racing school via his mother and uncle, Yann already had some good moments last season and I hope he can continue like this in 2018."

The WTCR - FIA World Touring Car Cup presented by OSCARO begins in Marrakech, Morocco from 7-8 April.
