TCR China 2023

[Rubio]

WSC extended the agreement to run TCR China and TCR Asia up until 2028:

TCR China looks very competitive this year, 32 cars, strong European drivers like Jack Young, Max Hart:

Good to see TCR China and TCR Asia back, seemed that last year they had some misunderstaning with WSC as the championships were not run officially and were not included in the World Ranking.

Wonder if TCR Asia finally gets non-Chinese rounds this year

In total 32 cars on the grid.
Factory teams from Lynk & Co, Honda, and Hyundai.
The factory MG's and non-TCR spec VW's are gone.

Unfortunately I can't find the full entry list.

MG situation is a bit strange.
IIRC last year they introduced new model, and now they left the series.
