London's new Wembley stadium will host the 'Race of Champions', an annual motorsport event involving drivers from various championships including Formula One and rallying, next December.
"We've been talking to some of the world's most prestigious stadiums," organiser Fredrik Johnsson told the event Web site (www.raceofchampions.com) on Saturday. "The 20th anniversary event will take place next year at the new Wembley stadium."
Sweden's Mattias Ekstroem, winner of the 2003 German DTM touring car championship, won Saturday's race at the Stade de France in Paris after beating ChampCars champion Sebastien Bourdais and world rally champion Sebastien Loeb.
Formula One champion Fernando Alonso did not take part.
