What about this year, that's what we're interested in?

As I mentioned with things bubbling along, who saw this one coming? http://www.insidebtcc.com/btcc-approached-macau-ev...

Tony Gilham also has an Avensis from UA - deal to be ratified

Wonder if he's bought both cars and licences.

[Stuart Thompson]

One car and license, he's hoping to do a deal on the second.

[DanielSan]

Are UA not in then this season? I'd have thought a team like that would give it more than one season to be honest.

Rob Austin Racing confirms driver line up but it won't be made public til Media Day 24th March!

The main shareholder pulled the plug on his side of the business. They are still doing GTs and tending to his historic car collection.

I think the majority of the remaining seats wont be announced till media day. The last couple of years there has been very little to look forward to from media day so guess gow wants to keep some surprises for the day.

Nothing to do with Mr Gow, he doesn't dictate to the teams.

Motorbase have posted photos of Mat Jackson testing their 2015 car today. Well somebody driving around with his helmet on, so I'd guess that he's got a seat.

Yes, seen those too!! As you say, must have a seat lined up or why would he be testing it. When you think last years preseason testing was all about Gio for Motorbase (and what did he achieve!!), lets hope they are aiming at being a bit more low key and keeping some consistency by keeping the driver that has served them the best in recent years.

[Janesy B]

Maybe they're just paying him to help develop it, I'm guessing the lack of a title sponsor is going to make things harder for Jackson as presumably he'll have to find more funding than last year?

So I'd guess that he's got a seat

As you say, must have a seat lined up.

A couple of posters said the above but Seat cars are not in the championship.

Motorbase and Mat Jackson use the Ford Focus

I've read that 2 or 3 times and I'm still lost.

Anybody?

I'm glad it's not just me!

[Henry Fiddleton]

Seat as in See-at Leon, Ibiza.

Keep up at the back!

[MG CHRIS]

RAR line up stays the same but what will the cars look like.

[DanielSan]

Audi A4's more than likely. Just facelifted, and with yet another new livery.
