They shoot themself in the foot constantly. It looked ok before this change.
It's not the FIA's fault. The WTCC & the ETCC are manged and promoted by Eurosport events.

They pay the FIA a fee for the right to use the FIA titles and to organise the series. Just the same as Bernie does with F1, or SRO does with GT or ISC does with the WRC etc. They are the ones who actually decide where and when their events take place, not the FIA.
