On topic:
In SC there was this bonus map about some secret experiment with Zerg and stuff. Maybe thats the new one. But I doubt Blizzard will implement a new race.

Yeah, the Protoss-Zerg Hybrids. I don't think they will be a playable race but I really hope they factor into Starcraft 2's plot.

There is already a 4th race in Starcraft canon, the Xel'Naga.

A nice thing about the 3 current races is that thematically they couldn't be any more distinct. If I had to have a 4th race then I'd want something completelty different from all 3, like an machine/AI race. I can't think of a way to make "yet another alien race" (like the Xel'naga or the zerg/protoss hybrid) distinct enough from the Protoss or the Zerg.

I agree. The playstyle has to be very distinct from all the other 3. It is not only looks that differ but the playstyle, too. Zerg is swarm, Protoss are hardhitters and terran are somewhat a mix.
I dont think there will be a new race but it is possible. We can only guess.
