A good calendar, good the addition on a non italian track also. Maybe there is a bit of gap between the penultimate and the final round...

16-17 full season cars would be good for our standard

GM10 · 27 Oct 2017, 17:09 (Ref:3776817)

Good addition, but there will be zero attendance. I'll never understand these races beyond the border.

I hope there will be almost 20 cars. TCR Italy started in 2015, it's time to have a high level championship.

pimmy · 27 Oct 2017, 17:51 (Ref:3776823)

I don't get the race in France. Hardly anyone turned up to Vallelunga this year, so why would they go to another country?

**FIRE** · 27 Oct 2017, 18:19 (Ref:3776835)

The race in France doesn't make sense.
Why not Adria?

GM10 · 27 Oct 2017, 18:26 (Ref:3776838)

There are much more races alongside Italian GT, which doesn't run in Adria (obvious reasons). A stand-alone race would have been good anyway. Maybe there will be changes, it's quite early to say that this calendar is definitive.

I hope too, but it's difficult. I think the Leon Cup should race with TCR Italy, we would reach easily the 20 cars grid

ACI & SEAT Italia don't understand it. I don't know why.

And when they add car to help Baldan win title they can

Adria is too small. a classic touringcar track like Enna Pergusa would be better.

Agree.
Anyone knows why ACI don't have Enna Pergusa on calendar? I just checked all their championships and no Enna at all.
Expensive to transport cars to Sicily?

GM10 · 1 Nov 2017, 21:06 (Ref:3778052)

Pergusa isn't so rich. They often have organisation issues and the number of entries is often low. It's a spectacular circuit, but not so attractive for teams and drivers.

JD Media · 3 Nov 2017, 12:38 (Ref:3778342)

Maybe they race together with some French championship (at Paul Ricard)? Heard they wanted a TCR series as well instead of the Peugeot Cup..

Maybe plans have changed but Kronos (same company behind TCR Benelux) had plans to run TCR France in 2018. Kronos will no longer run TCR Benelux and about TCR France no news since first rumours.

Juntos · 5 Nov 2017, 00:13 (Ref:3778654)

Everybody is expecting the arrival of the FIAT Tipo TCR. Watch on!

This car will be driven by Jurgen Schmarl. Good choice.

The TCR Italy could be boosted in entries by the opening of an AM drivers trophy. There is also a trophy for DSG cars

GM10 · 10 Feb 2018, 09:25 (Ref:3800195)

According to Motorsport.com IT, Tecnodom Sport will run a Fiat Tipo TCR in the 2018 Italian championship. The car will attend the BoP tests in Valencia next week.

This is a brave move

So a trophy for DSG cars in TCR Italy as well as a stand-alone TCR DSG 'endurance' series?

TCR DSG
Adria (22 April)
Monza (3 June)
Misano (24 June)
Imola (29 July)
Vallelunga (9 September)
Mugello (28 October)
