Jessica Bäckman is ready for a new race weekend

August 19–21^stADAC TCR Germany and its participants take over the Lausitzring track in Germany. The Sweden National Team driver Jessica Bäckman is charged for another new race weekend.
- Lausitzring is a completely new track for me, and it seems to be a technically advanced track. It will be a challenge to get up to speed quickly this weekend, I am ready to take on the challenge, Jessica Bäckman says.

The Lausitzring track (formally known as the Dekra Lausitzring for ownership reasons) is a racetrack located near Klettwitz (a civil parish in Schipkau) in the state of Brandenburg in northeastern Germany. The Lausitzring has a feature unique to continental Europe: a high-speed oval racetrack, used in the United States by NASCAR and IndyCar. The Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, DTM, is the main event regularly staged at the Lausitzring these days, which has also hosted several editions of the Superbike World Championship in the past. The Laustizring track has many different layouts, and it is the shorter version of the track that ADAC TCR Germany will race on. Next weekend it's time for ADAC TCR Germany's fifth round to run at the track and the Sweden National Team driver is looking forward to competing again.
- I'm looking forward to jump into the car again after the short break after Nürburging two weeks ago. I hope for a problem-free weekend with good speed, I'm charged and I will give my all, Jessica Bäckman says.

New technical advanced track for Jessica
Lausitzring is a track with many advanced and tight corner sections where qualifying will be a decisive factor. Jessica has loaded up with a lot of simulator training to be in the match from the start.
