\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTCR World Tour at Mexico City.<\/p>\n

The international TCR series is acting as the co-headliner alongside the Repco Supercars Championship and the AirTouch 500 at The Bend.<\/p>\n

Initially, the TCR grid \u2013 a combination of the TCR World Tour and TCR Australia Series \u2013 was set for three races across the three-day weekend.<\/p>\n

However, that looks unlikely with the World Tour cars not set to arrive at The Bend until Friday following shipping delays.<\/p>\n

The first program released by Supercars had the TCR World Tour scheduled for a one-hour shakedown on Thursday prior to competition beginning on Friday.<\/p>\n

Two practice sessions and a two-part qualifying were scheduled for Friday followed by two races on Saturday and a finale on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The late arrival means teams will likely get their first on-track session on Saturday. It\u2019s anticipated one race will be cancelled as a result.<\/p>\n

Speedcafe understands several schedule options have been discussed and are awaiting approval from promoter WSC Group and the FIA.<\/p>\n

The event schedule has been pulled from the Supercars website due to impending changes that are expected to be finalised today.<\/p>\n

The international teams competing at The Bend are Lynk & Co Cyan Racing, BRC Hyundai N Squadra Corse, GOAT Racing, and SP Competition.<\/p>\n
