Tordoff won't be racing for an absolutely heartbreaking reason.

That's awful.

As a parent to a toddler with another one on the way, that's about the worst thing I can think of. My thoughts are with Sam and his wife.

That's devastating

He must've thought things were looking up for him too, with his recent win at Thruxton and a baby on the way

Goddamn man, really puts it all in to perspective. So horrid to hear

This is a bit OT, but the worst thing about that situation is the trauma lasts a lot longer than people think, particularly if you plan on having more kids. We lost a pregnancy at 16 weeks last year and even that took a lot longer for us to work through than we anticipated. A lot of marriages split up as a result. But otherwise you carry the absence with you, being aware of birthdays and other milestones you would be celebrating as they come without actually talking about them. I hope Sam and his wife have the same sort of support around them as we had for as long as they need it.

Understandably Tordoff isn't returning any time soon.

Cammish and Neal in at Honda for 2020:

Also confirms Honda, Halfords and Yusa's involvement for at least 2 years

TBF they're one of the few teams to stick by the series through thick and thin, so it wouldn't be the same without them

I do really miss Gordon "James Thompson" Shedden though....

More Infiniti's on the grid possibly

Jake Hill confirmed:

So Goodyear is replacing Dunlop. Thruxton will be even more of a puncture fest then it used to be.

obviously the tires will be harder than rocks because they are so scared of the 2008 Brickyard 400 happening again

Subaru are officially gone but BMR will try and continue for 2020.

Stewart Lines considering a return to the BTCC
