SPORTSCAR365.com Interview: Mark Wilkins

This week in the Pirelli Paddock Pass, Mark Wilkins looks back on the 2018 Pirelli World Challenge season which marked the debut of the Bryan Herta Autosport-run Hyundai program in the series.

What were your expectations coming into the 2018 season?

“The opportunity to join Bryan Herta Autosport and Hyundai came about shortly after the New Year and was a wonderful surprise that I’m most grateful for!

“Naturally, my expectations for the program were quite high. The i30N TCR showed tremendous early capability over seas and with the rapid growth of TCR worldwide it looked very promising.

“That being said, the car was quite new and it was a brand new program for BHA so heading into the first two rounds at Circuit of The Americas I wasn’t really sure what to expect.
