ETCC 1963-1988

The ETCC, as it was known, was started in 1963 by Willy Stenger, who created the series at the behest of the FIA. It allowed a variety of touring cars of different sizes and displacements to race together, from the small Fiat 600 and Mini to the large Jaguar Mark 2, Mercedes-Benz 300SE and Chevrolet Camaro.

In 1966, the FIA introduced new rules for touring car, Group 1 (for standard touring cars) and Group 2 (for modified touring cars).

In 1968, the regulations were more liberal, and Group 5 cars were allowed. This situation persisted for two years, when Group 2 and Group 4 (for modified Grand tourer cars) were made the principal classes. Still, real touring cars like the BMW 2002 and 3.0 CS, Alfa Romeo GTA and Ford Escort were the teams' favorites, although the Porsche 911 did take part in the races. A grand tourer (Italian: Gran Turismo), (initialised GT), is a high-performance automobile designed for long-distance driving. ...

Group 5 cars were allowed back in 1973, but with the 1973 oil crisis, the following two seasons had few entrants. It was only in 1977 that the situation was normalized with the return of factory teams. Rules now allowed only Group 2 and Group 1B "National" cars to compete together, with BMW 3.0 Coupé CSL and Capri RS remaining the most competitive entries, as in the similar Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft. The 1973 oil crisis began in earnest on October 17, 1973, when the members of Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC, consisting of the Arab members of OPEC plus Egypt and Syria) announced, as a result of the ongoing Yom Kippur War, that they would no longer ship petroleum...

In 1982, the FIA replaced Groups 1 and 2 with Group N and Group A. The first one was mainly ignored by the ETCC entrants, all cars going the Group A route. BMW and Alfa Romeo prepared regular touring cars for the championship, but it was the big-engined Tom Walkinshaw Racing prepared Jaguar XJS and Rover 3500 Vitesse that would be more competitive in the years to come, fighting against the turbocharged Volvo 240 and Ford Sierra Cosworth. In relation to motorsport governed by the FIA, Group N referred to a set of regulations providing a set of rules for standard production vehicles for competition, often referred to as the Showroom Class. This contrasts with the Group A all-out competition production-derived vehicles. ...

Released on 21 September 1982, it replaced the Ford Cortina/Taunus, and was itself replaced by the Mondeo. ...

The championship was cancelled after the end of the 1988 season, due to escalating costs (a one-off World Touring Car Championship in 1987 also exarcebated the problem). By then, the FIA had allowed "Evolution" models to be homologated, and it was special cars such as the BMW M3 Evo and Ford Sierra RS500 that dominated the grids. WTCC redirects here. ...

The Macau Grand Prix's Guia Race, the Spa 24 Hours and the 24 Hours Nürburgring were the only international touring car races during those years. With the success and popularity of Supertouring in many national championships, the FIA organized the one-round Super Touring World Cup for these cars, between 1994 and 1996. In 1996, the FIA promoted the DTM, which already had races outside Germany in its calendar, to International Touringcar Championship (ITC), but once more escalating costs ended the series after two seasons.

ETCC 2000-2004

It wasn't until 2000 that the FIA once more created an international touring car competition, promoting the Italian Superturismo Championship to European Super Touring Cup. In 2002, this evolved into the brand new European Touring Car Championship, dominated by BMW and Alfa Romeo, but popular with the public due to the intense competition and Eurosport live broadcasts. Eurosport is the largest European sports satellite and cable network available in 54 countries and broadcasting in 18 different languages. ...

In 2005, the ETCC was promoted to World Touring Car Championship (WTCC), and the European title was given to a one-off European Touring Car Cup, with the best representatives from national championships running to WTCC regulations. WTCC redirects here. ...
