Interesting. Is this the first time they have this level of prize money?

I really hope 1 or 2 KMS Audi's will take part.

Any news about which drivers from STCC, DTC, RTCC and BTCC might take part?

At the moment it looks like that Chevy will participate with their 2 drivers, Seat driver Michel Nykjær is likely as well, and then the Poulsen BMW team with Kristian Poulsen and a not yet named driver.

Robbe · 25 Sep 2007, 13:46 (Ref:2022620)

TFS Yaco and Philip Geipel should be there, at least they said so before the season started.

Valker · 10 Oct 2007, 07:25 (Ref:2036556)

Latvian Jānis Horeliks who finished 3rd in Finnish TCC will participate with his S2000 Honda Civic (ex-Engström).

Only?

JMeissner · 10 Oct 2007, 15:23 (Ref:2036939)

The only one so far confirming it.

Aunt Sally · 10 Oct 2007, 16:29 (Ref:2036994)

Not a very inspiring entry list so far!

Thats a bummer... Care to make a qualified guess on what others are likely? Göransson must be very keen on getting down there and regain his crown, seeing as he was dissapointed last year when he couldnt race.

JMeissner · 10 Oct 2007, 17:43 (Ref:2037048)

Flash Engineering will not be at the race.

PorscheFanNo1 · 10 Oct 2007, 17:58 (Ref:2037061)

Too bad. A sertain titlecontender gone then...

duke_toaster · 10 Oct 2007, 18:00 (Ref:2037062)

If it's anything like previous years, no more than one or two BTCC guys will turn up.

Subaru_WRX_STi · 12 Oct 2007, 07:57 (Ref:2038290)

14 cars from the Russiab championship, not bad at all !
ADAC Pro Car teams are they allowed to compete ? they run S2000 too !

Subaru_WRX_STi · 13 Oct 2007, 08:36 (Ref:2039060)

shame that we have no BTCC cars !

redshoes · 13 Oct 2007, 08:52 (Ref:2039067)

I assume one of the 2 GR Asia SEATs will be the green one used by Gavin Smith and Rob Collard, so that's sort of a BTCC car.

Agreed though, would be nice to see Mat Jackson or WSR/RAC/Aviva but suspect it's down to lack of budget.

SEAT or Vauxhall? Bear in mind that WSR are going to Macau, I think their international budget is rather spent

E46 · 13 Oct 2007, 09:18 (Ref:2039083)

At least there is a mixed grid with a large number of cars (BMW, Ford, Toyota, Honda, SEAT, Chevrolet, Audi, Mercedes, Alfa Romeo). But it´s just me or the grid looks more weak not about quantity but quality?

I agree. Grid size and amount of different cars is not dissapointing but there are only a few well known drivers. But maybe this will give exciting races.

Great to see the Mercedes taking part.

Is Charly Geipel younger brother of Philip Geipel?

Bezzen · 13 Oct 2007, 11:58 (Ref:2039162)

Yeah, not to disrespect all the Russian entries, but I'd rather have the top from BTCC, DTC and STCC battle it out.

Bramzel · 13 Oct 2007, 13:32 (Ref:2039225)

Will be interesting to see how Lvov will manage to drive both the Accord as the A4 that weekend
