From FIA WTCC
The system determines the running weight of the cars on the basis of lap time calculation and is introduced for the first time this season at Monza.
The best lap times of the two fastest cars of each model in qualifying and the two best lap times of the two fastest cars of each model in both races are averaged. The calculation is based on a three event rolling average, being applied after the first two events.
The compensation weight has been determined by the lap times set in Brazil and Belgium.
The Chevrolet Cruze 1.6T was indentified as the reference model and will receive a compensation weight of 40 kg in addition to the minimum weight.
Both, the SEAT León TDi and the BMW 320 TC won’t have any compensation weight added, while the Volvo C30 and BMW 320si will have 20 kg deducted from its minimum weight.
These weights may change, should SEAT and Volvo cars switch to the 1.6 turbo engine. In this case they would receive the maximum compensation weight as per art. 79 B5) of the Sporting Regulations.
Compensation weight Monza:
+ 40 kg Chevrolet Cruze 1.6T
± 0 kg SEAT León TDI
± 0 kg BMW 320 TC
- 20 kg BMW 320si
- 20 kg Volvo C30
