That’s more like it. Big changes from this year, I think Donington will be a better first round, I’m not a fan of Brands Indy anyway.
Glad there’s not two Thruxton rounds and I’m very happy it’s Silverstone joining the calendar as it’s a totally different circuit.

Too many rounds in the spring for my liking when it is likely to be cold. Not enough in the summer.
Donington in March promises to be cold, cold, cold.
Donington always seems to be cold even in the middle of April.
Why only one round in May and June, whilst there are three mettings in March/APril? Doesn;t make sense to me.
I assume it is because next year there are the Euros in the summer, and Alan Gow thinks that will put people off attending/watching the BTCC in the middle of summer. However, I have said it many times and I will say it again - circuit racing to me is a summer sport.
