The 2007 WTCC Preview
They call him the Michael Schumacher of World Touring Cars, but can Andy Priaulx match the record of the former Formula One legend and take his fourth consecutive world crown? Glenn Freeman takes a look at the men who might finally stop the champion in his tracks
The World Touring Car Championship in 2007, for the majority of the field, will be all about one thing: stopping Andy Priaulx. That is not an easy task for anyone - as his 2004 ETCC crown and two world titles show - but once again a strong field will attack the man from Guernsey and it is highly likely that once again the title will go down to the wire in Macau.
Priaulx's achievements in touring cars were likened to those of Michael Schumacher in Formula One after Macau last year, but his dominance is unlikely to harm the sport because, no matter how good he is, he won't be wrapping up the title mid-season.
