Ik vermoed dat dit het persbericht is waar een embargo voor bestond tot vandaag (donderdag 23 september). Het artikel verschijnt nu overal, bv. ook op de ETCC website.
De belangrijkste informatie, buiten het marketing blabla.

The rollout of the first prototype is scheduled for December. The first actual race-going Chevrolet Touring Car will then hit the track for an extensive test programme throughout Europe. The drivers will be announced at a later stage.
“We have been talking to a number of drivers who have all the ‘ingredients’ for Chevrolet’s global racing programme,” Nève continued. “We are looking for individuals who have won races and championships before and can bring a wealth of experience and understanding to the brand.”
The ETCC’s decision to develop beyond Europe coincides with Chevrolet’s plans to grow GM’s global entry brand. The new WTCC will offer a comprehensive package of media coverage, reaching out to sports enthusiasts all over the world.
The WTCC is tentatively scheduled to start in Italy (Monza, 10 April), then move to France (Magny-Cours, 1 May), the United Kingdom (Silverstone, 15 May), the Czech Republic (Brno, 29 May), Mexico (26 June), Belgium (Spa-Francorchamps, 22 July), Germany (Oschersleben, 28 August), Turkey (Istanbul, 18 September) and Spain (Valencia, 2 October). The season’s finale is scheduled for the city circuit of Macau in the People’s Republic of China on 20 November.
