Several World Touring Car drivers have joined together to promote a website aiming to help the son of touring car racer Andre Couto.
Couto, who has raced in the WTCC round at Macau every year since 2005, has a six-year-old son, Afonso, who was diagnosed with leukaemia in November.
He has left his home in Macau and is hospitalised in Porto, Portugal and in need of a bone marrow transplant, but a compatible donor is yet to be found.
The SEATs of Gabriele Tarquini, Tiago Monteiro and Tom Coronel carried stickers to promote the www.saveafonso.com site, which is hoping to find a suitable donor, at Curitiba on Sunday.
Andy Priaulx and his charity team have organised a drop-in clinic in Guernsey next week to test for potential donors. For more information visit www.anthonynolan.org.uk or email info@andypriaulx.com.
