The FIA World Rallycross Championship dazzled on debut in Hong Kong this weekend as a sold-out crowd enjoyed something completely new…
Kevin Hansen made history by triumphing in the series’ first-ever race, while Johan Kristoffersson clinched his sixth career crown with a steady weekend’s racing.
Hansen delivered the most impressive performance of all, as the Swede battled back from a tough start to the day – picking up a puncture right at the beginning of qualifying practice – to top the table at the end of the heat races and then dominate both his semi-final and the all-important final. The result marked his third World RX victory – with his maximum score strengthening his grip on second position in the championship standings.
“This is just mega!” enthused the Hansen World RX Team ace. “I’ve been so excited to come to Hong Kong for so long. The crowd has been simply amazing – we could really feel the fans cheering us on – and the track has been challenging but super fun to drive. No two laps were the same so it was essential to stay laser-focused, but that’s what rallycross should be all about. The final was a great race and I would say this is my best win so far.”
