Paolo Rocca faces debuts in TCR Europe and TCR Italy

The next two weekends will mark Paolo Rocca debuts in TCR Italy at Vallelunga and then in TCR Europe at Monza.

“It’s a dream come true,” said the 21-year-old Italian. “I began the season as rookie, and six months after I’m just one step away from clinching the title of the Coppa Italia Turismo, and I am given the opportunity to measure myself with the best TCR drivers in Italy and Europe.”

In both events, Rocca will be at the wheel of the MM Motorsport Honda Civic Type R with which he has scored five race wins out of eight races in the Coppa Italia.

“I can’t wait to join my teammates Marco Iannotta and Carlo Tamburini and be part of TCR Italy’s very large grid at Vallelunga. The next week at Monza it will be even more emotional racing on the Temple of Speed, my home circuit, in front of my family and friends. And on top of this, amongst my competitors there is my racing coach Franco Girolami! What a challenge!”
