2012 World Touring Car Championship

[Piotrek Blaszczak]

Great.Can't wait.WTCC need more cars.I'm boring watch in action BMW , Seat , Chevy , time to time Volvo .

 

[Robert Wiesenmüller]

I think the car looks hot, but they need someone like Giovanardi, Thompson or Tarquini and not just Chilton. Let's hope they allow another driver to be number one in the team.​

 

[James Chant]

Onslow Cole was a better driver than Chilton over the last2 seasons - especially 2010 - but the team preferred Chilton.

 

[Fredrik Arbegard]

Looks like a nice car!
Let's hope it will be competitive and do good because WTCC needs more brands.

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

I just see now that this car has a really weird rear wing. This can't be right

Having a dad that is vice president of Aon helped Chilton a bit.
TOC was fun to watch during the last seasons in the BTCC and it is too bad that he struggles to get a proper drive.

That is one Ugly Ford model

 

[Oops]

I agree that is one very ugly focus and that spoiler looks all wrong

You guys do know he drove in the 24 Heures du Mans in 2005 and 2006 right? And just to add, they did come in 2nd overall in 2006. Plus his French GT and French Carrera Cup stuff? I'm not saying you guys didn't/don't know, I'm just making sure. He's definitely not new to racing other than WRC.

I think the guys an amazing driver, and he was really nice to me when I met him in New Zealand a few years ago. I'd rather see him in racing than some American jerk-off who's just in competitive racing because of his daddy (no names).

 

[Josue Arguedas]

Hello! I am new here but, yes!! I read the news about it the other day on their website. I can't wait. One of the 2012 races is going to be held (hopefully) at the Infineon Raceway, if only I didn't live so far away from there. About the Ford, I think the design of the car is a successful one, at least in the WRC. I don't know what percent of the original car is left in WTCC, but if anything I think design has the biggest impact.

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Welcome Josue

I don't know what percent of the original car is left in WTCC

The cars have to remain pretty standard apart from the tires, windows and stripped interior.

 

[Gaëtan Legastelois]

Agree with Ondrej, an each interview when the question is "And after the rally what next ?" Loeb say he has some passion for drive in Le Mans series.

 

[Ramónizer]

A german saying is: "Mit einem Ford fährst du fort , mit dem Zug kommst du wieder"

"With a Ford you drive fort ( away ) and come back in a train"

 

[Ryan Hayes]

Well he SHOULD have raced in f1 2009.. FIA did not grant a superlicence, and it was game over. we can basically disregard f1 now though, 39 (as he will be then) is surely too old for a rookie? even though 39 was the same age as Fangio in 1950, and he was the 'baby' of the alfa team... how times have changed!

 

[Mark Guy]

I'm so happy about Ford coming back. Ford is Lord.

 

[Mark Birney]

Loeb? WTCC? Why on earth would anyone go from WRC to WTCC as oppose to Le Mans or F1? Absurd.

 

[Gerben Kelly]

Welcome Josue

Suspension, brakes, engine, gearbox, ecu don't look pretty standard to me in the wtcc cars

chiltons father is a director of aon, thats why he gets the team number 1 slot.

just realised someones already made this point!

 

[James Chant]

Yeah, AON is the title sponsor, the team is Arena. In 2010 they screwed over Onslow Cole with team orders, then he didn't start for them in 2011 til later in the season he was driving for AMD , til I honk they realised they weren't getting the results without him, and he was back in the team.
