SEAT Cupra Eurocup
Has anyone heard any news, seen a calendar or heard of any driver signings for this series? It was announced last year, and is meant to support the WTCC this year, but I haven't heard anything since it was announced.

From Spain add Fernando Navarrete. I think drivers like Óscar Nogués or José M. Pérez-Aicart could race too.

Forgot to add, having seen the results now..
Not sure of the points system but with a win and a second it's a pretty safe bet that Oscar Nogues was the highest scorer over the weekend, which means he gets to drive the WTCC Leon at Pau. |

Colak seems to be the favourite... 37 points, and he already drove the WTCC car in Oschersleben (and not too bad!).
Murray is a good solid driver, while Nogues was my favourite before the season started - but now the gap seems too big if at least one of Murray/Colak comes through. Puyo was a bit unlucky, always close to scoring the WTCC-Ride but never made it. Always remember, one weekend doesn't count, for Colak it's Oschersleben, but Murray/Puyo will lose points they've scored at their worst weekend. However, I think all the top 10-drivers could play a good role in WTCC-Independent's trophy if they had a full season (hope some find the budget for next year) |

Murray has had a weekend where he got pushed off and scored no points so that will be his dropped round, so its 1 point between him and colak, it will be an interesting weekend. I think Murray will do it.
