Round Three of the RaceDepartment Touring Car Championship kicks off tonight from Japan at the Suzuka Circuit. Widely considered as one of the best circuits in the world, Suzuka features many high speed corners and unforgiving gravel traps. The drivers will have their work cut out for them with high tyre wear and 100% focus.
Once again it was the familiar face of Oscar Hardwick taking the chequered flag in Canada to take his second win in as many races. Ryan Seltzer has shown great pace so far this season and has only been marginally slower than the championship leader. With Suzuka being a highly punishing circuit, drivers will need to keep their wits about them if they're to finish and finish well.
Don't Forget!
We have a viewers competition where you (yes, you!) can go into the running to win a brand new Thrustmaster T300RS Force Feedback Racing Wheel.
Each round will feature a viewers choice question. Each question will ask for a letter and at the end of the season that letter will spell a word. Once the season is complete, send your final answer to our RaceDepartment account. From there a winner will be chosen via a random number through random.org.
Watch Round Three Live!
The live broadcast will commence for the start of the qualification session on Saturday 18:20 GMT. In the commentary bunker once again will be the fantastic trio of Thomas Hinss, R.J. O'Connell and Lorenzo Bonder to guide you through qualifying and the race and of course, ask that all important competition question!
Head over to our Twitch TV channel or our own livestream chatbox here at RD to watch the race as 30 of the top sim racers battle it out for ultimate glory and chat with fellow racers as the action unfolds before you.
