Three-time Champ Car World Series Champion Sebastien Bourdais has his sights set on claiming a fourth crown - a feat he could achieve at this weekend's Bavaria Beer Champ Car Grand Prix of Holland presented by Audi, Gant, Hertz, Jumbo and Pioneer.
Bourdais was joined in Assen today by fellow championship contenders Robert Doornbos and Justin Wilson, plus Paul Tracy, Katherine Legge and Jan Heylen at a pre-event press conference.
With three races remaining in the championship, Bourdais has to leave Holland with a 68 point lead to claim the title this weekend. He currently leads Doornbos by 53 points.
"Obviously it would be awesome to capture the championship this weekend - the sooner the better," Bourdais said. "The most important thing is to stay focussed, enjoy the weekend and keep approaching races one by one - that's the way we have done it since I joined the Champ Car World Series.
"The McDonald's team has done really well this year again and hopefully the hard work is going to pay off. I think we are going to have a great race here. It is a fantastic race track at Assen with a lot of excitement about the event."
His Dutch rival however will be keen to perform well on home soil and stop Bourdais from taking a clean sweep of the two European events.
