No, read the post again. WTCC drivers are NOT eligible. Alex Zanardi for one already races in both WTCC and a National championship but is not eligible.

SEAT are trying to enter Jason Plato on the basis that he's not a full-time WTCC entrant. I believe the FIA are going to relax the rule slightly so that the drivers who made a one-off guest appearance at their local WTCC round would not be excluded. The question is how much relaxation should there be. Plato has done 3-4 rounds this year, is that too much to be considered an occation entry.
