It's on the ETCC website so must be true
 Still, good to see Sharp back out there. |

They're making alot of expections this year...
You must have competed 50% of a national championship. But if the country they come from doesen't have a TC they can enter anyway. For O'Brien I guess that clears him, but not Sharp. Or has he done any races in the UK? |

There's no Scottish Touring Car Championship, so maybe he gets in that way

First I had written: Last year they were beaten by a "privateer".
But I wasn't sure about the support from BMW Sweden so I changed it. With respect to WCR I see ROAL and Plato's team more as factory teams. |

They do have bigger budgets than WCR.

Autosport magazine says that SEAT UK won't be entering any of their cars.

Too bad the champ can't get enough money to defend the title.

The bit in Autosport about Seat UK not entering car's is them feeling they can't prepare well enough for it with the BTCC finale this weekend.
To me it wasn't clear if it meant Plato wasn't competing, as it said there would still be British run Leons (by GR Asia) for Sharp and O'Brien. |

The timing of the event is too early. Very late October/early November would have been much better.
