Seat and BMW lose 30 kilos for Brazil

The SEAT León WTCC and the BMW 320 TC cars will benefit from a significant weight reduction for the next event at Curitiba.

Both these models will be 30 kilos lighter than they were in Portimão.

The Chevrolet Cruze remains the reference car according to the calculation based on the lap times set in the three previous events (Hungary, Austria and Portugal) and will be laden once again with the maximum 40kg ballast.

The BMW 320 TC cars will have only 10 extra kilos on board, while the SEAT León WTCC will run on their minimum weight.

Once again the Ford Focus and SUNRED León 1.6T cars will benefit from a 20kg reduction of their minimum weight.

+ 40 kg : Chevrolet Cruze 1.6T
+ 10 kg : BMW 320 TC

- 20 kg : Ford Focus S2000, SUNRED León 1.6T
