I think we will see plato and turks with bmr along with aron smith will be a strong team if true.

888 would be good to see tom ingram there alongside Jordan we would do well there also very quiet on the 3rd car.a

Eurotech has a spare seat be interesting to see who is there.

Motorbase Jackson should be there and with alex martin in the 3rd satalite car theres another seat there.

Team hard still unsure on drivers, or how many cars.

Rotek is looking like they wont be there and UA too.

I think we wont see many new updates until media day tbh.
Rotek? Of course they won't be there.

Team Hard???? (Lots of question marks, no matter what they say.)

Why do you think Turkington will be with BMR? Got some insider info you'd like to share?

They haven't paid for the car yet though I believe, just a deposit.
And this is team HARD. It's like the Caterham of the BTCC, until they physically on the grid and racing it's hard to believe anything that's said.

Turks at BMR is a done deal. Announced soon I'm sure.
No 3rd car at Motorbase, its been sold.
Team Parker driver tbc soon.
And 2nd car for AMD with surprising newcomer to BTCC.

BMR will be a serious contender this year with Plato and Turkington. The Passat was a good car last year, it just needed drivers to make the most of it.

JP just Tweeted, 'Might have a year off'. Guessing it's a joke but caused quite a stir on Twitter

This will believe them when they are on the grid.

Ive no insider info just what as been stated by others and what is looking likely. Indeed if plato and turks is with bmr alongside aron smith that will be a very strong team. Wonder if they will run the 4th for scott/menu and keep with 3.

Im guessing motorbase 3rd car will be in the hands of amd.

I cant see though menu or gio back this year.

Matt Jackson to stay with motorbase.

I think plato is just pulling peoples legs, as a few members over on ten tenths forum hate him so think hes just having fun with them.

The word surprising. Is that nice surprise? Because Paul Knapp has been on about the BTCC and would be a surpirse. Just not exactly the best one.

Knapp is a bullstter of the highest degree, so ignore that.

Here's a surprising suggestion though (remember you read it here first):

Nicolas Hamilton as a "guest" driver in a few rounds?

Surely that can't be allowed which is why they brought out the TRL's

I just noticed Plato blocked me on Twitter after I called him out for bhing about someone taking him out last season in pretty much exactly the same fashion as he'd done to someone else. hehe

All the focus seems to be on the big guys but for me, I'm interested in what the future now holds for Tom Ingram and Jack Goff in the BTCC...

Agreed, talent means nothing without the financial backup.

Who's going to be driving Chris Stockton's Cruze then? (That's if you're still sponsoring that team?)

Come on, we won't tell anyone else 'til tomorrow...

We're both thinking along the same lines.
