The Bathurst 6 Hour already exists.

The Bathurst 6 hour is a production car event though isn’t it, not TCR?
It’s an endurance event rather than sprint also.

Whatever, Bathurst is looking for another race weekend so we’ll see what happens.

in other words any tcr race at bathurst wouldn’t be a wtcr event.
it would be an australian tcr race maybe combined with the new NZ series?

I'm happy to see TCR stay on. Other theoretical concepts like a 'Class 1' reboot are still seemingly unviable and it's been a pleasure to see the series revived with young and experienced drivers alike finding themselves in well-deserved top level drives again.
If only the BoP games would come to an end and the calendar could open up to some more traditional tracks in the vein of Monza or Brands Hatch...

TCR rules didn't help to increase 'World' touring car racing attractiveness. The races are still far away from 2005-2008 heyday in terms of on-track action, the tracks are boring and artificial and it's extremely difficult to follow it and understand because the results are random because of BoP mess.
It's a shame because there is clearly potential in that series but only if they find solutions to BoP and replace ridiculous tracks with the proper ones.

It’s better than the previous spec regulations they had. The main problem for me is that it is hard to access for those without digital TV. The Beeb covered it for one race meeting, then disappeared

About that. How can Hyundai close the gap that quickly when both Hyundai and Lynk & Co have 97.5%. OK there is slipstream and front car cut through the air.
But how then Huff wasn't able to overtake Tarquini when Golf have both 100% of power and slipstream.

About 1 min in, although doesn't show the move, only the aftermath

Did you see what Huff did in race 1? He said slipstreaming gave him and extra 15kph...the video is online and it is just fantastic to watch.
