NEWS FROM BMR!

No, not whether or not they are running a third car, they have a new K&N intake system for the season.

More interesting than the fact they’ve announced that is that it would indicate that the spec filter which Pipercross have been supplying for years is no longer in the rule book?

Maybe that was just the TOCA engines using pipercross as WSR were sponsored by K&N and I'm sure Team Dynamics have had ITG decals on their cars for a few years?!

there’s 4 or 5 air filter suppliers stated in the rule book (including K&N)

Well, the 31st seat confirmed. Not the driver I expected, but he is still a better choice compared to a senior driver like Depper.
Now the only question remaining is the BMR seat.

Just curious but Aiden has been testing the Merc, was it Ciceley staff looking after the car on the days? Who is "Laser Tools Racing Team", part of Ciceley (and thus an entry name) or a new entity?

I just wondered because Ciceley haven't mention a peep about Moffat being under their wing, it's all been about running two cars (Adam and Tom) when it's actually a 3 car setup under 2/3entries? I know the Merc and the team truck are being wrapped at a business near to Aiden's hometown rather than near to Ciceley on Lancashire, which got me wondering if it'll be a new team/setup for it.

I guess we'll know for certain next week.

It's still Ciceley who do a lot of the prep and their contracted engineering company (Hexathron) work on his car as well as Morgans. Moffat supplies the trucks and hospitality.

Wonder if they get the meat for the hospitality via an organisation based in Essex?

I think I'm getting confused again...

Adrian Flux back with BMR but I couldn't find any mention of a third car / driver...

(or, according to this tweet, Adrian Fux...)

Looks like #AdrianFuxInsurance is not trending yet - where are all the JP fans?

If Adrian Fux is a new driver for BMR, the commentators had better go careful to avoid innuendo during the season!

so they have 2 drivers, and in recent days a sponsor and an air filter... but do they have engines yet? last I saw there were doubts as to if mountune were going to supply again due to payment issues...
