“After a fantastic season, for me it is a prize that Repsol gives me the opportunity to run the Alcañiz 500 km in a circuit such as Motorland, which is amazing.
The car I will drive has special features.
It works with a fuel named AutoGas, which contributes to improve the quality of the air and has a much lower consumption.
This will allow us to do more laps and to be more competitive,” said Bou, who just won the Spanish Trial Championship.
