My understanding is that it may in fact be Mercs but the C-class they intend to run

Bobby Thompson isn't going to compete this weekend. He's still suffering from his Croft crash and is looking to put a deal in place for 2021

Trade Price Cars will be making an announcement regarding their 2021 program tomorrow at 4. Mo drivers will be announced but it looks like they are also building new cars. It’s rather positive that teams are going out their way to build new cars in the current climate

Trade Price cars join forces with Excelr8 Motorsport to have four Hyundai’s on the grid next year. No drivers yet but they are in advanced talks for all seats

Whatever keeps Plato out of the driving seat next year :whistling:

Still, I know who you meant really, but to play devil's advocate, wouldn't it be better to have someone who knows all the tricks and manuevers than someone who was comparitively angelic behind the wheel?

I think all ex-drivers are going to know the tricks but it would be a better look for the series to have someone with a clean reputation in the position.

Either way, I think he'll be more focused on running Dynamics after he retires, Steve has gotta be pretty old now and may want to phase himself out of the organisation

We get all the support races on the ITV website post Qualifying, btw.

Fair warning that BTCC qualy starts at 12:30pm tomorrow, obviously because they need to cram everything in before dark

Ash Sutton is reportedly going to be a WSR driver next year alongside Turkington in a 3 car team. That’s a strong team for 2021.

So if you can't beat him, hire him into your team so you can inflict team orders on him? :whistling:

Congratulations Colin Turkington 2021 BTCC champion :lol:
