The first event of the 2006 FIA WTCC also marked the debut of the JAS Motorsport's new Honda Accord Euro R, which was homologated a few days earlier.
The new car features a brand new aerodynamic kit as well as a new engine compared to the 2005 version, and both evolutions proved to be effective on the fast straight lines of the italian circuit.
Both Pierre-Yves Corthals and Ryan Sharp reported to be happy with the performance of the car, although for various reasons final results were below their expectations.
"It was a pity that a gearbox problem stopped me on the last lap of Race 1,” commented the Belgian driver. "But I am very happy indeed. I was able to keep the same pace of Menu and Balzan who eventually finished 3rd and 4th in the second race. Meaning that I am already in the position to fight for the top ten. I'm confident for the next races."
On his first outing in a Touring Car competition, Sharp spent most of the weekend to get used to the car rather than trying to set good lap times. However he drove his car to the end of both races in 18th and 14th positions respectively. In Race 2 he also set an impressive lap time, only 0.386 seconds from the race winner Farfus' fastest lap.
"My confidence is growing," says the young Scotsman. "I was very apprehensive during the weekend aiming not to make mistakes. Monza was definitely a good start and I look forward for better results already in Magny-Cours.”

Carreguem nas fotos para ficarem maiores
Adoro este campeonato embora nao o siga de perto.
Na época passada numa das últimas corridas lembro-me de uma cena caricata, eu andava numa discuçao com uns Americanos em que eles diziam (com alguma razao) que os RWD eram soberbamente melhores a curvar. Na corrida em que ficou decidido o título, um dos adversários directos do vencedor abandonou a prova após uma saída por understeering enquanto tentava passar um FWD ( se nao me engano um Chevrolet). Adoro estas provas pela competitividade. Belas fotos!
