WTCC delighted with 21-car entry

World Touring Car boss Marcello Lotti says the series is in good shape for the future after announcing a 21-car entry for 2011 - and that 20 entries are already committed to the 2012 season as well. Despite BMW's withdrawal leaving Chevrolet as the only fully-fledged manufacturer entrant in this year's WTCC and teams having to switch to the new 1.6-litre turbo engines, the championship will start 2011 with a slightly larger entry than it attracted for the 2010 opener, when 19 cars took the start in Brazil. Chevrolet has hung on to its works line-up of Yvan Muller, Rob Huff and Alain Menu, and will also run Brazilian driver Carlos Bueno in his home event at Curitiba at least.
