I wonder if that regulation will be reviewed for 2020?

I'm not sure why Gow should be fuming? That regulation is there to stop teams entering other series to get additional testing miles under their belts at BTCC circuits (if the TCT started at Snetterton for example the BTCC teams could otherwise enter that round and hone their setups ahead of the BTCC round at Snetterton). It's just a regulation to stop in season testing - so HARD running in the TCT after the BTCC season has finished is no drama.
There's a chance that the HARD cars will be a third of the grid for the TCT round. I suppose it'll be their biggest grid of the season?
