2013 European Truck Racing Championship
The 2013 FIA European Truck Racing Championship was a motor-racing championship using highly tuned tractor units producing over 1000 bhp. It was the 29th year of the championship and Jochen Hahn won the title for the third year in a row with MAN.
Since Heinz-Werner Lenz, who between 1997 and 1999 won the Race-Trucks Class title at three consecutive years on his Mercedes-Benz 1938-S, and for the first time since the Super-Race-Truck Class was abolished prior to the opening of the 2006 season, Jochen Hahn is the first truck racer to win the title hat-trick on his Castrol Team Hahn Racing MAN race truck.
In 1988, 1989 and 1990, Curt Göransson was the first one to achieve such a success by winning three Class B titles in a row on his Volvo N12 race truck.
