European Touring Car Championship
Encyclopedia
The European Touring Car Championship was an international touring car racing
series organised by the FIA
. It had two incarnations, the first one between 1963 and 1988, and the second between 2000 and 2004. In 2005 it was superseded by the World Touring Car Championship
, and a single-race European Touring Car Cup
has been held since then.

counted towards the ETCC, which was won by German Peter Nöcker and his Jaguar.
In 1968, the regulations were changed to allow Group 5 cars
to participate, however these highly modified Special Touring Cars would only be eligible for two years.
In 1970 the series name was changed from European Touring Car Challenge to European Touring Car Championship. Group 2 again became the principle category
although Group 2 regulations were now much more liberal in nature than the old Group 2.
Following the 1973 oil crisis
the next two seasons had few entrants. It was only in 1977 that the situation was normalised with the return of factory teams. Rules allowed Group 2 and Group 1B "National" cars to compete together, with BMW 3.0 Coupé CSL
and Capri RS
remaining the most competitive entries.
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
.
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.

in many national championships, the FIA organised the one-round Super Touring World Cup for these cars, between 1993 and 1995. In 1996, the FIA promoted the DTM

In 2001, this series became the FIA European Super Touring Championship, with an extra class for Super Production cars alongside the main Super Touring class. In 2002, this evolved into the brand new FIA European Touring Car Championship, using Super 2000
rules, dominated by Alfa Romeo and BMW, but popular with the public due to the intense competition and Eurosport
live broadcasts. In 2005, the ETCC was promoted to World Touring Car Championship
(WTCC).

Starting in 2010 the ETCC will once again become a multi event racing series. Four events of two races each are set to be held in Portugal, Italy, Austria and Germany at respectively the Circuito Vasco Sameiro
in Braga, the Autodromo Bonara in Franciacorta, the Salzburgring
in Salzburg and the Motorsport Arena Oschersleben
in Oschersleben. However, on 25 Mar 2010,
