The current FIA WTCC season will remain with the eleven already confirmed events.
The possibility to replace the Mexican meeting - that was originally scheduled at Puebla on April 21st - has finally been dropped after the negotiations with interested event promoters did not meet with the championship’s logistic and promotional requirements.
Marcello Lotti, CEO of KSO explained: "We did not find the conditions to seal a satisfactory agreement, and taking into account that this is a season affected by the global crisis, we thought it was better to settle on eleven events."
