The 2014 FIA World Touring Car Championship opening event will be postponed by one week.
The WTCC Race of Marocco that had been originally scheduled for taking place at Marrakech’s Circuit Moulay el Hassan on March 6, has been deferred to March 13 to meet with a request coming from local authorities.
The rest of the WTCC calendar remains the same, meaning that the second event – at Le Castellet’s Circuit Paul Ricard – will be held only one week after Marrakech.
