WTCC chief's verdict on the new era

WTCC boss FRANCOIS RIBEIRO on the series' new rules, Citroen domination and why a touring car ladder system is next on his agenda

Motorsport is one of the pillars of Eurosport's programming. For the Easter weekend we put on air the World Touring Car Championship, the Circuit of Ireland round of the European Rally Championship, and the World Endurance Championship from Silverstone.

After the second round of the WTCC at Paul Ricard, we have a better view of the TC1 regulations that were introduced this year. I was convinced that the opening Marrakech round did not reflect reality, and the layout of that circuit accentuated the differences between cars with a strong engine and those with a slight deficiency in power.
