ETC Cup at Vallelunga

By

Wednesday in Paris, the FIA World Motor Sport Council has ratified that the maiden edition of the FIA European Touring Car Cup will take place at Vallelunga, Italy, on October 16th.

Competitors from at least ten different European countries are expected to take part in the event that will award two different FIA Cups, one for Super 2000 and one for Super Production cars.

The FIA ETC Cup will be the first international car racing event held on the revised Vallelunga race track. The circuit, located 40 km north of Rome, is currently being extended from 3.2 to 4.2 km, with the addition of a new section between the Cimini 2 and Trincea bends. The works are due to be finished by the end of August.
