That's surprising to me - I prefer him over Sutton. I wonder if the rumours are true about Warren Scott driving an MG, then? And if so, that's two question marks at BMR.DanielSan said:
If he ends up in a Subaru which seems likely is it really departing 888 when it's owned by the same person and you're moving one space down in the workshop?
It doesn't sound like he's heading to BMR, though - from the comments in the article, it seems he has no drive at all. I would have thought if he was moving from 888 to BMR, he wouldn't have said anything at all to the press right now.DanielSan said:

What are you laughing at? He couldn't get the money together for Triple 8 but you think he can get enough for BMR?swooshiain said:

One correction to that article - we're down to six seats to be confirmed. Lines is returning in his Focus, with Team Parker running it this year. Don't all get too excited now.The Wikipedia page for this season is up-to-date and well referenced. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_British_Touring...

Looked at the Wiki 2017 and Subaru haven't even got Plato listed.
That's a given surely ?
No-one is confirmed yet for BMR, but I would agree that Plato is the one certainty there. Interested to see who fills the other seats - there are obviously a few drivers from last year who haven't announced their plans (or lack thereof), but I'm also wondering if Subaru might not parachute in a big name from elsewhere.That's a given surely ?

Are Subaru that involved to do any kind of 'parachuting'? DanielSan said:
It's the punchable looking face formerly known as Aron Smith before he showed the world how whipped he is and took his Mrs name when they got married.
I wonder which would I choose, driving a BTCC car and taking the wife's name or being a jealous internet hero like yourself?acer12 said:

Stick with option 3 and choose to be outraged for no reason at everything you read on the internet instead... between that and making inaccurate assumptions regarding anyone's level of apparent jealousy it should keep you busy enough inbetwern those marathon wk sessions in front of your laptop every night.
