ETCR rookie Adrien Tambay leads the series heading into the final round. He is just 14 points ahead of team-mate and defending ETCR champion Mattias Ekström.
Tambay has been crowned King of the Weekend once and Ekström has been crowned twice, and both will be trying to top the tables again and take the coveted title.
Jordi Gené will be aiming to end his season on a high in the all-electric CUPRA e-Racer. He’s fought hard in every race this year, with a SuperFinal podium finish in Jarama his best result of the season far.
Likewise, Tom Blomqvist will be aiming to finish the season with a King of the Weekend crown. He is one of the few drivers to have raced at the Sachsenring circuit before, albeit over 10 years ago!

CUPRA EKS has maintained a high level of competitiveness through the 2022 season. At least two team drivers have finished on the podium in all race weekends, and all of them ended up on the podium at least once. While the CUPRA e-Racer has been fast and reliable car – performing exceptionally well on the different and technical racetracks.
All that remains now is the 2022 ETCR final round at the Sachsenring, a circuit located in the Saxony region of Germany. Like all the racetracks that have hosted a round of the ETCR this year, it will provide a stern technical challenge for the CUPRA EKS team – as the tight and twisty 3.671km track includes a tricky downhill right-hand corner nicknamed The Waterfall.
You can follow all the action on the CUPRA social media channels, as well as the ETCR networks. Please check your local TV guide for when it’s broadcast in your country.
The same weekend as the ETCR race at Sachsenring circuit, CUPRA is racing at the Extreme E Copper X Prix race in Chile.

“We go to Sachsenring with the aim of winning the Drivers’ title for the second year in a row! Adrien and Mattias have very good chances, but the level is very high, everyone on the grid has a lot of experience and the racing this year has been very fast and close. We are in for an exciting finale to the 2022 season, and whoever is crowned ETCR Drivers’ champion this year will deserve it.” said Xavi Serra Head of CUPRA Racing.
