2007: Introduction of the Duratec engines

In 2007 a new brand of engines was attracted to the championship. The 1600cc Duratec engines were 30 kilos lighter than the old 1800cc Zetec engines but also more powerful. Cars with the new Duratec engines formed the A-class while cars with the old Zetec engines formed the First Division class.
