TCR Asia has become the latest touring car series to postpone its planned season start due to the global COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, with the plan still being to hold five events in 2020.

Josh Files will take part in the TCR Asia series in 2020, racing a Hyundai Veloster N TCR for the Solite Indigo Racing team, having made his Asian racing début earlier in the month in Malaysia.

Josh Files will join the grid of the second TCR Malaysia event of the year in Sepang this weekend, racing a Hyundai i30 N TCR for the South Korean Solite Indigo Racing team.

The 2020 TCR Asia season will feature races in Malaysia, China and Thailand, with a five-event calendar being confirmed for the sixth season of the international touring car series.
