BTCC

How does it work driving in the championship.

Take for example Andy Jordan who may be out of the BTCC as he hasn’t got enough sponsorship. Do the actually teams like BMW Honda and Toyota pay the drivers? Do the sponsors pay the drivers? I’m confused! 🤷🏼‍♂️

Basically:
Who pays for the car?
Who pays the driver?

I have to admit I find this fascinating. Thanks all for the input

Wookie great to have an ‘expert’ on the forum! I do enjoy my shredded wheat in the morning - although I like the frosted version. Does the sponsorship cover that?

Is the BTCC unique in the way the drivers get drives? I’m guessing that it’s because BTCC isn’t bringing in enough revenue for the teams to be able to pay their drivers as apposed to (at the opposite end of the spectrum) F1? Or enough coverage for more big manufacturers to come back in? Ford I’m looking at you, Honda are here Bmw are here, Toyota are here. Where are you?!

Anyway, one more race weekend to go this year - good luck Wookie I’ll be cheering for you! (From the sofa now I have a 12 week old!) lol
