The 1986 European Touring Car Championship was the 24th season the European Touring Car Championship. The 1986 season had all the signed of being a classic year. Never before or since, have were so many works cars entered. Following Eggenberger Motorsport switch to Ford, becoming their works team, defending champions Volvo, turned to the Belgian outfit, RAS Sport. Tom Walkinshaw Racing normally entered three cars on behalf of Rover. The cars were a steady development from 1982, however still surprisingly competitive. Schnitzer Motorsport found some extra horsepower during the winter and became BMW’s frontrunner once again. Even, the Australian marque, Holden entered some races with the big Commodore, ahead of the 1987 World Touring Car Championship season. And this was only Division 3. Division 2 was contested by the BMW 325i’s against the Mercedes 190. Although the races proved to be very entertaining, behind the scenes, protest followed protest, with this time Volvo and Ford the victims. Illegal fuel, Volvo’s fuel tank a little oversize. This shouldn’t have happened, but it did. The final round at Estoril seemed to give Win Percy the title, who would pip Roberto Ravaglia by just one point. So Percy was champion – for just four weeks. Then, FISA remembered a rule change from the previous January, which stated the worst five results (opposite to the four of 1985) would be dropped from the overall standings. Ravaglia was champion instead. == European Touring Car Championship == Champion: Roberto Ravaglia Runner Up: Win Percy 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1986 European Touring Car Championship season」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
