There will be no homologation for VW and Audi for ETCC, and they withdrew Seat homologation.

Hmm. Lot of ETCC drivers has a Seat TCR or Cup car. What is the legal situation between them and the VW group after this decission?

This is quite incredible. Good on VAG, screw the FIA. I suppose the typical ETCC entrants could enter European TCR rounds and/or TC Open.

But as a loophole FIA could create a class for cars that comply to TCR rules. Or am I missing something?

Wow, that's shooting yourself in the foot with damn good aim.

I mean, if I wanted to develop the FIA ETCC, I'd try to get as many cars allowed as possible. This is exactly the opposite.

I'm pretty sure Lotti won't mind this FIA's decision.

TCN-2 is well and truly dead now.

I've said this before, but I can't see TCR and the WTCC co-existing in the long term. Even if they do, it'll be as damaging to the category as the CART/IRL split.

Can't see how WTCC would survive. Are there any other championships that have those cars?

Not that I know of. Sensible settlement needs to be reached, and soon.

VLN is the only series (beside WTCC) where a TC1 car was entered...

Ach so.
Which team/car was this?
If I remember well Honda entered a VLN race but wasn't that a TCR car?

I think I've found the race car that Tarquini and Monteiro entered in 2014 (VLN 23/08/14). It definitely isn't a TC1 (it isn't even turbo charged).

Sorry if you meant a different race. This was all a quick search pulled up.

Just found an article that did enter the TC1 car but the race was cancelled.
