PRAGUE - A Seat Leon FR 2.0 turbo diesel car was handed over to young racing driver Michal Matějovský (22) at a ceremony that took place yesterday in Prague and was attended by the Vice Miss of the Czech Republic, Hana Svobodová (19).

With a similar car, fitted with a petrol engine, Michal Matějovský will take part in this year's SEAT León Eurocup. This is a brand-new series, and the successful young driver will contest its races under the colours of the SUNRED-BRT Spanish-Czech team. The opening race of the series takes place in a month's time, at Valencia. Each of the SEAT León Eurocup series' races will be held in a different European country, always along with a racing event of the FIA World Touring Car Championship (FIA WTCC). And, let us note that SEAT is the reigning car of this series at present. Nevertheless, Michal Matějovský will also take part in races in the Czech Republic: as a driver of the VEKRA - CSMS Racing Team, he is to take part in the well-known Česká pojišťovna Škoda Octavia Cup series.

'I promised Hanka that I will give her a ride in this beautiful sports car, which was provided to me for this season by the company Import Volkswagen Group s.r.o., which imports these fine cars into this country,' says young racing driver Michal Matějovský. However, he will not have much time for rides in the spring-time weather because, on Saturday, he his leaving for Barcelona by plane to undertake the first tests. And, a week later, Michal will move to Spain again, this time with the car provided to him, and his involvement in this year's round of tests and races will begin.
