Infobox notes[edit]

Please note that the number of chassis manufacturers includes independent/semi-independent makes: Peugeot and Honda in this case. The number of teams refers to the actual teams themselves, not the banners under which they competed, so SEAT Sport has been counted as one team. The results at fiawtcc.com place GR Asia at the top of the teams' standings, but this was an independent team, so I have left that as N/A for the time being. I would have expected to see the results of a factory teams' championship with, probably, BMW Team Germany in first place. See the talk page of WP:MOTOR for more info. Adrian M.

Touring Car World Cup redirect[edit]

I note recently a link to Touring Car World Cup in the article was deleted because it was a circular redirect. Perhaps the redirect should not exist as the Touring Car World Cup was a different event and deserves a seperate article. I remember because I expanded some information on the World Cup some time back in this article only to have it reverted because the World Cup was NOT the World Championship. --Falcadore (talk) 02:40, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I know, you're correct; when the text was wikilinked by an IP, my thought was "oh, interesting; an article that I didn't know existed" so I was surprised to find myself directed back here! I don't have the tools to delete the redirect, so it will probably need to stay as it is until a stub can be added over it, assuming that there is enough verifiable material and that the event is actually notable enough (about which I have doubts). Adrian M. H. 10:55, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Don't see why it shouldn't be notable. Best Super Touring teams in Europe gathered three years running the race against each other, awesome quality of grid. --Falcadore (talk) 11:09, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but can you find reliable (preferably print) sources that devoted editorial to it? Adrian M. H. 11:41, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Several in my library, presenty in storage mind you, both periodicals and a few annual books. --Falcadore (talk) 12:26, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of entrants[edit]

This page needs a list/table of entrants with their points tally from each season. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.85.193 (talk) 16:14, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

These tables exist on the pages for each year of the WTCC. 1987 World Touring Car Championship, 2007 World Touring Car Championship season etc - click on to the years in the charts of this page should link you to the year you want. --Falcadore (talk) 20:58, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

World Touring Car Cup manufacturers champions[edit]

The main text says: "The 1993 race at Monza was won by Paul Radisich [...] with no manufacturer title awarded [... the 1994] manufacturer title went to BMW [... the 1995] manufacturer title went to Audi." But the table below shows BMW as 1993 champion and Ford as 1994 champion. WHich one is correct? --NaBUru38 (talk) 23:47, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can anyone tell me why the teams champion was removed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.222.202.107 (talk) 18:24, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've restored it (with the correct flag). I'm not entirely sure that field should be filled as the makes champion is more important, but someone else on here may know more about that. Bretonbanquet (talk) 18:36, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A few things regarding the FIA Touring Car World Cup[edit]

I've noticed that the pages for the 1993 FIA Touring Car Challenge, 1994 FIA Touring Car World Cup and 1995 FIA Touring Car World Cup had links which take you to World Touring Car Championship, so I've changed these to World Touring Car Cup. I also changed the redirect pages for FIA Touring Car World Cup and Touring Car World Cup to the cup page rather than the championship page, since there's only info about the 90s cup on the cup article. This seems like something which should have been done straight away when the stuff about the 90s cup was moved from the "championship" page to the "cup" page but oh well, it's done now.

What I'm also wondering now though is why there is no talk page for World Touring Car Cup?! A7V2 (talk) 04:23, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Probably because it is the same series as before and only the name has changed? A name change is not a good reason for creating a new article. --Falcadore (talk) 03:34, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Well not to cause trouble, but on that matter is there really a need for a new article? I suppose the argument could be that it is a continuation of both the old World Championship, and the TCR International Series, but I still feel like it could be one article.

Andy Priaulx[edit]

I'm not particularly fussed one way or the other but the national flags for said driver should be all GB or all Guernsey, not a mixture of the two. Mr Larrington (talk) 01:55, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
