If I recall correctly, Alfa Corse only ran selected STW races. Norisring in '98 and '99 come to mind, as well as the race at Misano in '99. The other Alfas were just run by privateers, like Franz Engstler for example. Maybe it was enough for Alfa to have "just" some 155s/156s running around in Germany, just to keep the brand in the German racing scene, without spending too many ressources there. After all, the later DTM/ITC years cost a lot of money for Alfa.
