"The reason I decided to change the number is to mark the new start and continuation of my 22 year old career in an innovative TCR international series. I wanted everything to be new but also symbolic for me. With this number I started my two decade long career and I won my first title with it. This change also has a sentimental meaning for me. My late father competed in the truck races in 1993 with this number, and that was my first contact with racing. I got hooked and started my racing career, first in karting for 7 years where I won 6 national titles. Everybody knows that my father was my idol and a role model. Now, 22 years later I want to drive with that number and I hope it brings me luck” – Borković said.
B3 racing team is finishing all the preparations with new Seat Leon, and Borković is training hard and preparing as well with a professional race kart on the circuits in Serbia and Europe. End of March Serbian champion is going to Bahrain where TCR international season launches on April 3rd.
"As far as I am concerned championship can start. I am really excited since everything is new to me once more, but on the other side I feel I am more prepared than ever.” – Borković concluded.
