Nissan to RML & WTCC
Heard some reports in the paddock at the weekend that RML return to WTCC with Nissan after Chevy have pulled out at the end of the year... And that they have already started work on the new car!
If true that will be great news to all people working on the chevy wtcc project |

That would be fantastic news, a big boost for the championship. Fingers crossed! Also very curious about the car to run!

No! NO! NO! I wanted to see RML and Infiniti so badly in the DTM. Why did they have to go to the WTCC instead? What's the big deal beating Honda and Lada, when could be a contender to Mercedes, Audi and BMW? But I'll wait for any official confirmation. Maybe someone mixed up the touring car championships.

And does Nissan want to contend with Mercedes, Audi and BMW? What if they want to show off a smaller car? S2000 is a good formula, the WTCC just needs the works teams. Nissan would help make the championship stronger. |

If they turned up the boost a bit and made the cars a bit quicker, it would be a viable series.

There are rumours RML is working on an official Bentley GT3 project.

Very true. I was just reading an old Autosport article the other day about when they ran the Nissan BTCC team and the Vauxhall British Rally Championship team at the same time. Different personel, different buildings, same company.

It's a nice small MPV but not for racing.

Is there any possible to use LEAF to promote Nissan as a clear power brand?

The Sentry/Sylphy makes sense, except for Europe (isn't available).
