TURKISH DRIVER JOINS WTCC FOR HOME RACE
Ibrahim Okyay is looking forward to his first appearance in the FIA World Touring Car Championship on his home race track.
Born 47 years ago in Istanbul, Turkey's capital city which is only half-an-hour drive from the Istanbulpark, Okyay will take part in the event at the wheel of a BMW 320i run by the Turkish Kosifler Gillette M3 Power Team, a former BMW Team Italy-Spain's car.
At the wheel of his S2000 car Okyay competes in the Gulf Track national championship, where he is currently classified third in the Maxi Group.
In previous seasons he claimed four national titles: three in the Track Championship (1997, 1999 and 2001) and one in Hillclimbing (1999).
As a newcomer to the championship he will be given a 20-kg weight handicap.

ONLY ONE CAR FOR JAS AND WIECHERS
JAS Motorsport's Scottish driver Ryan Sharp will not take part in the next WTCC meeting at Istanbul. Sharp, currently second in the Yokohama Independents' Trophy, behind Tom Coronel, is due to be back at the wheel of his Honda Accord for the last two meetings of the season in Valencia and Macau.
Wiechers-Sport will run only one BMW 320i in Istanbul, for Diego Romanini; they are currently negotiating with a few drivers to run both their cars at Valencia and Macau.
