The third round of the season will take place this bank holiday weekend at the super fast Thruxton Circuit in Hampshire. It'll be a perfect weekend for the speedfreaks with NASCAR at Talladega and WEC at Spa. Meanwhile, the 'other' touring car championship will be at the Hungaroring...

If the Passat is as competitive as it was in 2013 I hope we get to see Menu return to the sharp end.

Fully expecting Andy Jordan to be fired off into the hedges on the final lap with a puncture.

Completely forgot this was on this weekend! Always a fun round.

Looks like James Cole will make it. United have built a new Avensis and they're due to shake it down on Friday

I love Thruxton. All the fast and flowing corners remind me of a flat version of the old Österreichring. It's something that you just don't see in this day and age, but I'm so glad we still race here.

We'll need to shoot any possible NIMBY's just to make sure.

At least one of those Hondas will have a puncture in race 1.
