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.

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.
