Thed Björk back to the top spot with Yann Ehrlacher second

Thed Björk is the top ranked driver after the latest Kumho TCR World Ranking calculation following the weekend’s races at Inje Speedium in South Korea, though the Swedish racer has his teammate and title rival Yann Ehrlacher right behind him.

Björk and Ehrlacher both moved up to the top two positions, after Björk claimed victory in the third race of the weekend, while Ehrlacher’s high-scoring weekend in the sister Cyan Racing-run Lynk & Co saw him move back to second in the ranking.

The two drivers move ahead of Lynk & Co stablemate David Zhu Dai Wei, who now slips to third in the ranking, while Honda driver Esteban Guerrieri drops to fourth, just one spot, though just three ranking points cover the top four.

Dušan Borković enjoyed a large leap after a competitive weekend on his return with GOAT Racing, moving up 44 spots to 33rd.

Josh Buchan, who only has 12 results of the 20 possible minimum, enjoyed a 61-place rise in the ranking following an incredible victory in Race 1 in South Korea, and is now up to 38th position.
