The World Touring Car Championship could present two rounds in Russia and India in 2013.
The arrival of Russia on the calendar would be quite normal, considering that the country has been involved in WTCC for several years, via the Lada work team - the Russian brand being set to come back full-time next season -, but also throughout the oil company Lukoil, which backs Gabriele Tarquini and Russian driver Alexei Dudukalo.
The Moscow Raceway, which will welcome Formula One soon, could host two rounds next season.
Website TouringCarTimes also revealed that WTCC promoter Marcello Lotti was in talks with India's Buddh International Circuit repsentents to present the opening round of the 2013 championship.
Moreover, Lotti said, although it was a last minute deal in 2012, Slovakia could be back in 2013 - since the race that was used to replace the aborted Argentinian weekend was a great success - 41 000 people showing up over the week end, among which the president of Slovakia.
