Wickens “not just ticking a box” in racing return with Hyundai

The Canadian said that he wants to “race at the highest level possible” in the future as he resumes his career in the TCR class of the Michelin Pilot Challenge with Bryan Herta Autosport's factory Hyundai team on the undercard of the Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona, IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship's season-opener.

Wickens qualified seventh in class for Friday’s race at Daytona. The Hyundai Elantra N TCR he is sharing with former series champion Mark Wilkins in the full season is fitted with a system of hand controls to allow Wickens to drive the car after he sustained spinal injuries at the Pocono IndyCar event in August 2018.
