Green Flag MSA Brit🐻ish Touring Car officials have granted cars running to European Touring Car regulations a 25-kilogram reduction in 𓂃weight from the next three championship rounds at Mondello Park on 12-13 June.

The announcement will affect SEAT Sport UK's Toledo model and privateer teams Edenbridge Racing's BMW 320i, T🍬eam Sureterm's Alfa Romeo 156 GTA and Team Quest/Varta's Honda Civic.

BTCC 🗹Series Director Alan Gow said that the decision was taken 𒅌after detailed analysis of performance of both ETCC and BTCC-spec cars running in Britain.

"In the best interests of the BTCC, the two types of cars should boast equal performance," Gow commented. "That is essential in generating more of the exceptionally close rac🐲ing we have witnessed so far this season.

"In the last three ETCC🍒 meetings, SEAT's Toledo has proved it is now on a par with the best out there from establi𒈔shed leaders Alfa Romeo and BMW.

"It should therefore be equal in performance to th🔯e best of the BTCC-spec cars, such as the Vauxhall Astras and Honda Civics. I believe a 25kg weight reduction will achieve this equality."
