Lynk & Co given weight break in Balance of Performance tweak

The Lynk & Co 03 TCR has been given a 10 kg weight break in the latest adjustment to the TCR Balance of Performance [BoP] measures.

The main change to the BoP sees the Chinese cars given a 10 kg weight reduction, from 60 kg to 50 kg, which takes the car’s total racing weight to 1,265 kg.

The change is applicable with immediate effect. The only other change sees the Hyundai Elantra N TCR given a slight power reduction – the car will now run the engine ECU at ‘C4’ which provides 97.5% power, down from 100% previously.

The Lynk & Co had previously been the heaviest TCR car competing, but it is now the equal heaviest, along with the Hyundai Veloster N, which it does not directly compete against at present.
