Carnets are a cost minute compared to the increase in transport costs . They are now double and it has nothing to do with Brexit . Nothing at all to stop them going abroad other than costs .

BTCC has a natural period of down time I the winter because budgets dont come all year round . The cars have to be refreshed and that is dependent on what the teams have in the bank . Not many have money for that .

Many UK GT teams are already in full european test
