Wonder if he's just bought one and they're running it for him or if HARD have got a couple of them?
The way the press release is worded is he bought it and HARD are running it under their license. I don't think there are two available unless Parker have given up their one.Kraken said:

The Levorgs will not be back out. I believe as of next year they are no longer eligible for the championship. At least something along those lines was being said after the final round.
They are eligible but no new cars of their configuration (boxer engine or rotary for that matter) are allowed. So basically Subaru couldn't enter anything other than the Levorg unless it had a conventional engine.MG CHRIS said:
Also talk of shedden coming back after his nightmare in wtcr with audi.
I wonder why Shedden has done so poorly in WTCR? I know he's got his detractors but you can't deny he's a quick racing driver, but whenever I've randomly popped on a WTCR race he's always messing around in 23rd place or something. Edited by Speed Badger on Sunday 8th December 00:13

To be fair the vast majority of time he was higher up than that with some top 10's. TCR is a very different place to BTCC with the way the BoP works but he was generally outshone by hist team mate. The Audi is definitely not the car to be in though.So WRT are withdrawing from WTCR https://www.autosport.com/wtcr/news/147567/wrt-aud...
Guess that leaves Flash out of a seat, does that make it more likely he will be back in BTCC next year??

If Jordan can't afford it I'd be surprised if Ricky could unless his dad gives up racing and chucks a big wedge his way. Not sure if he would want to leave the GT world for it either.
I was thinking that. GT racing (with Aston I think), or BTCC. I'd probably see a longer term future in GT racing.lickatysplit said:
I only assumed it'd be easier to raise and cover costs on a BTCC season over GT.
I might be well wide of the mark here but I'd be surprised if he's paying anything at all to drive the Aston and is getting a wage. With the BMW in BTCC he'd probably have to find 250k or so to drive it.Kraken said:

Noticed on Instagram this evening Jordan is announcing his plans for next year on Wednesday. Any bets on what's occurring?
Going by what he posted a few weeks back I'd say it's the Carrera Cup he's moving to.DanielSan said:
