Congratulations to Jamie Tonks on his first TCR UK win. The race was on July 16 at Oulton Park.
Jamie said “It’s great to take my first TCR UK win. I knew the pace was there, it was just a case of getting into a position where I could challenge for the lead. I had a great start and took advantage of the scraps going on around me. I then waited for the opportunity and once in the lead, I was able to hold on. I couldn’t have done it without all of the support from my sponsors and the team who provided me with a race-winning car.”

PFC Brakes have won the 2020 Spanish Rally Championship. Pepe López / Borja Rozada, Team Sport & You Citroen C3 R5 tarmac, using the excellent PFC 39 brake compound.
Very high temperatures were registered in the tarmac surface, which suited the 39 compound very well. It remained very consistent throughout.
They also won the Superchampionship, combined tarmac and gravel, using 11 compound for gravel specs.
This is a great debut with our actual Spanish Rally Champion and PFC driver Pepe López who was extremely pleased with the new PFC compound.
Excellent initial races for JP Motorsport’s Mercedes GT3 in the International GT-Open championship. The ex-F1 driver Christian Klien (AUT) took pole position at Hungaroring, winning the first race overall with his teammate Patryk Kuprinski (POL). They are leading the PRO-AM category in the GT OPEN championship after Paul Ricard where they fight against a negative Mercedes BOP in the French Circuit. Very strong competition against factory teams of McLaren (Optimum Motorsport and Teo Martin), Ferrari (AF Corse) or Aston Martin (TF Sport) with PRO drivers.
The team is extremely happy with the PFC brake pads 15/332 at Hungaroring and 39/332 at Paul Ricard. Congratulations to the team and thanks to the drivers, especially to Christian Klien for his experienced and positive comments to help our engineers in the evolution of our brakes!!!!

After the first five races of the FIM CEV M3 (Junior M3 World Championship), Xavier Artigas is the leader with two victories, P2 and P8 in the last race after recovering ten positions due to a race incident fighting for the victory. The Spaniard leads the championship, 21 points ahead of Acosta, with Garcia third.
Artigas took the podium in the last race of the Moto3 World Championship, the first time he took part in the World Championship at only 16 years old. The young rider is a multiple champion and has a great experience in racing motorbikes. He has a lot of confidence with the PFC 333 compound in his Honda HRC M3. “ I am very confident with the PFC 333 brake pads due to their high initial bite which helps during overtaking in the extremely competitive FIM JR World Championship M3. We are doing similar and even better lap times than in the Moto3 MotoGP world championship!! Also they felt great during the complete race, with no changes in my brake lever. “ Also the Team appreciate the pads’ durability, and disc-friendliness.
Mr. Arenas, team owner said “we are using the PFC 333 in all our bikes, not only in M3, motorcycles with two discs, also in the Honda European Talent, motorcycles with only one disc, and normally more difficult on the brakes. With PFC 333 we have solved problems with other brands, and issues such as fast drop or curved back plates which generate overheating.
The PFC 333 has no taper and its characteristics help my young riders. They have always the same excellent feeling on their brakes!”

Our Rally drivers and the former Spanish Rally Champion Pepe Lopez / Borja Rozada have started the season well. Pepe Lopez / Borja Rozada won the 2 initial rallies on tarmac in the Spanish Championship, Ferrol and Orense. Driving our newest “39” compound front and rear on his Citroen C3 WRC2 Pepe got a lot of confidence with the brakes feeling a good performance and high resistance against the heat in the first races with the summer’s high temperature, specially on Madeira Island and also in Galizia’s rallies.
The Sport & You team is using PFC brakes on their different cars and drivers such as Pedro Fontes (Citroen C3) Camacho (Citroen C3) or Magalhaes (Hyundai i20). Rali Vinho Madeira 2020 was an excellent race with 4 cars in the top 6 in a European Rally Trophy round.

PFC BRAKES WIN BOTH RACES AND LEAD THE CHAMPIONSHIP !!!
Excellent weekend at Paul Ricard, initial race of the TCR EUROPE championship.
PFC Brakes have been working hard to develop new compounds for the TCR sprint races. During the pre-season we tested with the Honda JAS supported team, Brutal Fish Racing Team and their drivers Dan Lloyd, Pepe Oriola and Martin Ryba on different circuits. They finally chose our newest “39” compound due its good torque and initial bite, but also for the pads’ easy modulation, plus a strong and firm pedal during the race.
Daniel Lloyd, the British driver was 3rd in qualifying, winning the initial race and P6 in the 2nd race (reverse grid). He leads the championship and has given us excellent feedback about our brake pads. Thanks Dan and congratulations on your success!! And congrats to our newest “39” compound for its first victory in an International race on its first test!!!
The second race, with reverse grid from the qualifying, gave us a great surprise and another victory for PFC!! The German driver Mike Halder won from his Pole Position, defending the pressure from his follower, the professional factory Honda driver Nestor Girolami (Arg / Honda Civic Type R TCR). Mike used our “333” PFC compound, and was very happy with the Honda Civic brakes.
PFC are also providing brake discs to the Audi official team ComToYou, getting excellent results!! They finished 2nd overall in the meeting with M. Bennani (Marroco/Audi RS3 LMS) battling with Dan Lloyd in the two races!!
