B-Quik Absolute Racing kicked off the 2026 season of TSS The Super Series by B-Quik in style during a blisteringly hot and action-packed weekend at Chang International Circuit in Buriram.
With fiercely competitive racing, evenly matched GT3 machinery and drama from lights to flag, the opening round delivered everything fans could ask for — and by the end of the weekend the team emerged with an outright victory, two GT3 AM wins, multiple podiums and early leads in both the Drivers’ and Teams’ championships.
Saturday’s Race 1 saw all three B-Quik Absolute Racing entries finish on the overall podium in a sensational start to the season.
The newly formed pairing of Henk Kiks and Alessandro Ghiretti brought the upgraded #26 Porsche 911 GT3-R EVO home in second place after an outstanding recovery drive from the very back of the grid following a missed qualifying session.
Right behind them came the #27 Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II of returning driver Daniel Bilski and newly promoted B-Quik Junior Team driver Sathaporn Veerachure, who also secured victory in the GT3 AM class.
There was drama for the sister #888 Audi R8 LMS GT3 evo II of three-time champion Sandy Stuvik and former GT4 standout Iaro Razanakoto. An unscheduled early pit stop dropped the pair down the order, but an impressive comeback drive saw them fight back to claim the final podium position.
It was the perfect way to start the year, with all drivers scoring valuable championship points and the team banking a huge haul in the Teams’ standings.
Sunday’s Race 2 proved even more dramatic, with the order constantly changing throughout a chaotic and unpredictable encounter. Through it all, however, Bilski and Veerachure kept their composure, stayed out of trouble and delivered a brilliantly controlled performance to take outright victory in the #27 Audi.
The pair also claimed their second consecutive GT3 AM class win, leaving Buriram leading both the overall GT3 and GT3 AM championship standings.
The victory marked Bilski’s first win since returning to the team, coming at the first time of asking, and Veerachure’s maiden GT3 victory in only his second event at this level.
Kiks and Ghiretti capped off a remarkable weekend by charging from the back of the grid once again to finish second overall in the #26 Porsche, completing a dominant 1-2 finish for B-Quik Absolute Racing.
Two runner-up finishes place them firmly in championship contention, sitting right behind their teammates in the standings after a determined and relentless weekend of racing.
Unfortunately, luck continued to evade Razanakoto and Stuvik in the #888 Audi. After battling through adversity on Saturday to secure a podium finish, their Sunday race came to an early end following a tyre deflation that caused significant underbody damage.
Despite the disappointment, the pace shown by the new driver pairing throughout the weekend was undeniable and they will head to the Bangsaen Grand Prix determined to bounce back strongly.
With one win, five overall podium finishes and two GT3 AM victories from the opening weekend, B-Quik Absolute Racing leaves Buriram satisfied — but hungry for more as attention now turns to the streets of Bangsaen for Round 2 of the championship.
