SE🐼AT, Alfa Romeo and Chevrolet will gain a weight break for the next round of the World Touring Car Championship at Zandvoort after the FIA stepped in to counter criticism levelled at them following BMW's domination of the first round.

The FIA came under criticism from SEAT in particular after reigning champions BMW were given a controve🅷rsial 15kg weight reduction to ne⭕gate the advantage they had gained from having two standing starts.

SEAT believed this was instrumental in the team runnꦫing away with the first round at Curitiba when they score🐼d two 1-2-3 finishes in Brazil.

As such, the FIA Touring Car Bureau has acted to help equalise the weight break🥂s for front and rear-wheel drive cars, retaining the 15kg reduction for BMW but offering SEAT, Chevrolet and Alfa Romeo a further 25kg off for the next round in Holland.

Although it stresses that the changes are for one-round only, the round is likely to be watched carefully to see if the 🦄German marque can be wrestled from the top spot.
