- The Swedish driver arrives at the final race of the championship as the leader, with a 35-point advantage over his main rival.
- He has had an outstanding season with three wins, four podium finishes and two pole positions , results that put him on the verge of his first title in the Spanish championship.
- “We are aware of the responsibility that comes with reaching the final of a championship with a chance of winning the title. The team is focused on giving its all to achieve this goal,” says David Simón, team manager of Monlau Motul Technical School.

Monlau Motul Technical School will face the final round of the 2026 TCR Spain championship this weekend with a major objective: to clinch the drivers’ title alongside Viktor Andersson. The driver from Linköping, Sweden, arrives at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, the venue for the final race, as the overall leader, with a 35-point advantage over his closest rival. This is a prime position to fight for his first crown in the Spanish series, although two other competitors still have a mathematical chance of being crowned champion.
Andersson has been one of the season’s biggest stars. The Swedish driver has racked up three victories – two in Valencia and one at Jarama – along with four podium finishes and two pole positions , allowing him to take the championship lead and head into the final round with a comfortable cushion over his rivals. Adding to this impressive record is his strong performance in TCR Europe, where he finished fifth overall with four podiums and one pole position .
The final round of TCR Spain will also hold special significance for Monlau Motul, who could cap off a historic season. If Andersson manages to clinch the championship, the Barcelona-based team would become the first to win both the TCR Europe and TCR Spain drivers’ titles in the same season, an achievement that would further solidify the team’s excellent sporting record for 2026.
David Simón , team manager of Monlau Motul, emphasizes the team’s motivation as they approach the championship finale: “We’re incredibly excited to have another chance at winning the TCR drivers’ title. We’re aware of the responsibility this entails, and the entire team is focused on giving their all to achieve this goal. Furthermore, competing in this final race at home will allow us to count on very special support from our sponsors, family, and friends. We want to provide Viktor with the best tools and conditions so he can fight for the title, while maintaining the high level of commitment and professionalism that defines us.”
Jaime Serrano , CEO of Monlau Motul, emphasizes the team’s opportunity to complete a great year: “We are very excited about the possibility of closing the season with another sporting success. If we achieve this, we would be the first team in history to win both the TCR Europe and TCR Spain drivers’ titles in the same season. This would be a great recognition of the work and commitment of the entire team throughout the year.”
The action at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya will begin on Friday with the first free practice session. The second session will take place on Saturday morning, followed by qualifying at 1:55 pm. Sunday will bring the action with two races, scheduled for 10:10 am and 3:45 pm, each lasting 25 minutes plus one lap.
