Tobias Brink has confirmed that he will continue racing in the 2021 STCC TCR Scandinavia season with Brink Motorsport, aiming for the title after a disappointing end to last year’s season.
“Considering how we have performed over the last couple of years, there is only one goal for 2021 and that is the STCC title,” said Brink.
The 32-year-old headed the standings for the majority of the 2020 season, only to drop down to finish third behind Rob Huff and Robert Dahlgren after the season finale.
“The speed is no doubt there, but we need to put everything together. We are intentionally setting the highest possible aim to put pressure on ourselves to deliver this year,” said Brink.

Reigning STCC TCR Scandinavia champion Rob Huff will remain with Lestrup Racing Team for the 2021 season as the team expands its line-up.
“I’m very excited to return to the STCC as champion after what was probably one of the most emotional seasons I have experienced in a long time,” said Rob Huff.
The Brit managed to claim the STCC title on his first season in the championship after fighting outgoing champion Robert Dahlgren and Audi driver Tobias Brink until the last race.
“It was very much going into the unknown last year and I feel much more prepared for 2021 as I have visited at least four of the circuits that we will go to,” said Rob Huff.
