Fiat considering WTCC entry

Fiat considering WTCC entry - touringcartimes.com, 19.02.07

Fiat is considering entering the World Touring Car Championship next year. Recently the Italian manufacturer has announced plans for a return to the WRC with the Punto-model build in S2000 specifications. The very same model could be used for the WTCC.

"We have a lot of belief in the rally programme (with the Punto Super2000), but we are also evaluating other avenues," Luca de Meo from Fiat told Autosprint.

"For example we'd see the Bravo well for circuit racing. We'd like to take part in the WTCC and this is something we are seriously considering. Besides, I don't see other important showcases, and since Alfa is edging towards GT racing."

"I repeat: we believe in Fiat's sporting soul, but it's important to make the right moves, as it's been the case with the Bravo project, and that is without improvising. That's why we are closely analyzing the regulations, the organization and the TV deals."
