Tiago Monteiro pulled off a sublime slipstreaming overtake to win the opening round of the 2021 WTCR − FIA World Touring Car Cup on the legendary Nürburgring Nordschleife. And by holding off team-mate and home hero Luca Engstler, Jean-Karl Vernay took the Race 2 victory to leave Germany as the Goodyear #FollowTheLeader.

在今年世界房车锦标赛揭幕战中，前F1车手蒙特罗在首回合中漂亮得利用尾流超车，在传奇的北环一举夺冠。第二回合中，现代车手维尔内抵挡住了队友，主场车手卢卡·恩格斯特，在夺冠的同时上升到积分榜首位。

Yvan Muller, who started Race 1 from the reverse-grid pole driving a Goodyear-equipped Lynk & Co 03 TCR for Cyan Racing Lynk & Co, was unable to fend off Monteiro (ALL-INKL.DE Münnich Motorsport), as the Portuguese timed his move for the lead to perfection at the end of the long Döttinger Höhe straight.

得益于首回合前排倒序发车的规则，领克四冠王伊万·穆勒得以在比赛中杆位起步，但这不足以阻挡蒙特罗和他的本田赛车。最终穆勒在两英里长的多廷格·赫直道上败下阵来。

While Monteiro led Race 1 for only a handful of turns, Vernay (Engstler Hyundai N Liqui Moly Racing Team) was in front throughout Race 2, the Frenchman resisting several attacks from his young German team-mate to give the all-new Hyundai Elantra N TCR a debut WTCR victory. Néstor Girolami (ALL-INKL.COM Münnich Motorsport) was third from the pole position.

如果说蒙特罗的第一回合冠军是场险胜，那现代车手维尔内在第二回合中就有点掌控全场的意思。法国车手同队友，德国小将恩格斯特缠斗整场，两人为全新登场的现代伊兰特TCR赛车包揽冠亚。另一位本田车手，杆位得主吉罗拉米拿到第三。
