BTCC/Motorsport post lockdown

How can motorsport be run without increased cost's in the UK with social distancing measures still being upheld.

With F1 proposing to test all team members every 2 days and making teams isolate from each other and have separate hotels, How will this work for BTCC?

Also travel to and from the circuits? It'd be 3 people to each 9 seater minibus to maintain social distancing so lots more cost their as well.

Also Room sharing? If you social distancing will they want to share rooms with people from outside their household? Some teams also have freelance contractors from many different parts of the UK aswell.

How will social distancing work in the pitlane? Many pitlanes are crowded and it'll be hard to social distance from your team let alone at places like Croft/Thruxton/Knockhill where it'll be hard to keep away from the team next door when two cars are in next to each other.

Also it'll require hotels to open restaurants to feed water teams

Many other questions will pop up as well.
