Josh Buchan has blasted into the TCR title contention with twin wins for the new i30 Sedan N TCR at the iconic Phillip Island Circuit over the weekend.

The 2023 TCR Australia Championship consists of seven rounds, each with three races which involves two practice sessions and a final race.

“ The team has been working hard to understand the Hyundai i30 Sedan N TCR, and it was an incredible feeling to have such success with the new generation car. This is going to be a very competitive championship all the way to final round at Bathurst in November, so were not counting our chickens. But it is definitely a great breakthrough and gives us a lot of confidence moving forward."

During the practice races, both Buchan and Sweeney finsihed in the top five for both sessions. With Buchan starting from pole position in the final race, he repeated his performance from the practice races and crossed the finish line to score another win and the overall round victory, while Sweeny had another consistent run to fifth place.

The incredible results from these rounds, elevated Buchan into fourth position on the championship standings, only 28 points behind Sweeny.
