Mark0994 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
They could create some kind of pyramid
Like if you are champion of ETCC you get TCR International drive
and if you are TCR champion you get WTCC drive
+ since TCR is much cheaper than WTCC they should organise some kind of championship race after Macau (or during Summer break) with all of TCR Int. drivers + champions of National TCR championships + some WTCC drivers.
Like World Cup in 1993/1994/1995. They have 43 drivers back then.

Completely agree. Unfortunately won't happen as long as ETCC is run by Eurosport Events and TCR by Lotti.

If I understood correctly, Lein Racing offered to distinguish S2000 cars from S1600 and run separately. If so, it can be simular to Moto3-Moto2-MotoGP system. BUT - the cost difference between S2000 TCR cars and WTCC is quite big and it's not easy to move forward and build a proper touring car ladder.

ETCC needs more events as well. They should run at all European WTCC events IMO

nope, ETCC was the last international series to race there in 2013-15. The Superstars Series also raced there in 2012.

None of the Italian championships has a round in Pergusa this year, also.

Yes, they were, and then the ride height rules came into force on Saturday

Nevertheless, Morbidelli's TCR Int'nal pole was 1:53.228, whereas Pellinen clocked 1:53.276 on Saturday.

Nothing between them, really.

Good finale, happy for Richard because he wants that WTCC drive more than Fulin.

Still not impressed by Rikli's tactics by bringing 5 cars to the finale. Shoud be limited

I really don't think ETCC can afford to limit entries, it needs every one it can get. That sort of thing has been going on for decades anyway.
