BTCC 2021 silly season rumour mill

[BMR]

PMR are announcing their 2nd driver at 8am tomorrow.

[On-Rails]

Plato’s teammate at PMR might surprise a few. Race winner, but not Proctor, Jackson (or Neal before anyone throws that in!) should keep Plato on his toes.

I see some suggestions of Dan Cammish.. surely not. A case of 2+2=5 after he put a social media post out thanking his personal sponsors.

It’s not Cammish, but has won in a Honda before.

Sam Tordoff?

Has Andrew Jordon ever won in a Honda. I’m racking my brains.

Pirtek racing Honda Civic rings a bell.

He won the title in that car. Think he's done with BTCC permanently now unless something drastic has changed over winter.

Must be Dan Lloyd then? Won a race for BTC

[stevemcs]

Dan Lloyd ?

It's pretty shocking that a series like the BTCC has no prize money really.

Youve got that wrong.
The teams share a total prize pool of some £350,000

You'll have to wait until the morning to find out, but.......

[Robmarriott]

Lloyd confirmed at PMR. Hopefully he’ll do well, he’s a good lad and a quick driver, here’s hoping the Astra is good enough.

Who’s left unconfirmed now, 1x TD and 1x HARD?

[BMR]

Yep, and Nic Hamilton has signed a deal. So I’d say he’d be in the Cupra and Rowbottom in the Honda

Yep think you may be right on both of those.

[Kraken]

Rowbottom has denied in multiple places that he has the TD drive. I can't see anyone outside of a Neal, Rowbottom or Proctor though.

[DanielSan]

If Neal wasn't in it you'd think he'd have announced retiring from the BTCC already. It would be a surprise if he didn't do a farewell season.

Yes, he has strenuously denied it on this very thread!

But that doesn't mean it's not going to happen though.

[Sammo123]

Looks like Matt Neal has retired then.
