Wide-open WTCC excites Monteiro

Tiago Monteiro can't wait for the 2017 FIA World Touring Championship to start in Morocco next week - because he expects the competition to be "so wide open".

The factory Honda star finished third in the 2016 standings but is a favourite to go two better this season.

"I'm very excited," said the Portuguese. "We've made the biggest improvement over a winter with the car than ever before and that's really motivating. But the championship is going to be so wide open with so many possible winners and that makes it definitely more exciting for everybody."

He continued: "The domination of Citroën last year was hard for us at Honda because we worked hard, but they were doing an amazing job and beating us, although we were always fighting with them. With no factory team from Citroën now nobody should dominate the championship.

"I cannot hide that there is a huge pressure and I put this on myself, naturally. I have been lucky in the last 10 years to be with works teams, but it's not every year that you have the possibility to fight for the championship. At one point I was not ready, I was not up to the task when I was fighting specialist drivers with lots of experience at the start. But now I am ready. We are in a positon where we know we can fight for the title so of course it brings an extra pressure. But at the same time that's what pushes us towards our goal."

The Circuit Moulay El Hassan hosts WTCC AFRIQUIA Race of Morocco from 7-9 April.
