Kevin Gleason won the first race, starting from third position, driving a Honda Civic TCR, and Jordi Gené gained the second one, driving a SEAT León Cup Racer.

Success Ballast

Due to the results obtained in the previous round and in the Sepang round of the TCR Asia Series, Pepe Oriola and Philippe Descombes received +30 kg, Stefano Comini and Eric Kwong +20 kg and Jordi Gené and Michael Choi +10 kg.[1] Nevertheless, Descombes and Kwong didn't take part at this event, so they will take the ballast at the first round they will participate.
