Daniel Lloyd is the first ever TCR UK champion

Daniel Lloyd is the 2018 TCR UK champion, taking the title in the inaugural season of new touring car competition under TCR regulations. Lloyd secured a title after his eighth win of the season in the first race of season’s finale at Donington Park, winning in wet conditions in the #23 Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR of WestCoast Racing.

He won ahead of teammate Andreas Bäckman and Verizon Connect Racing’s Finlay Crocker in a Honda Civic Type R. Before the last race of the season, Lloyd increased his lead to 50 points, with a maximum of just 40 available in the last race. Pyro Motorsport’s Ollie Taylor was the only man with mathematical chances to take the title but he finished fourth in the first race.
