This may be a dumb question, but I appear to have missed something.
Why aren't Team Halfords and their drivers scoring independent points this year? |

Not sure if 'excluded' is the right word, but I believe they're judged / or have stated themselves they are benefitting from too much Honda assistance to be classed as Indies. |

Whilst BMW have only provided WSR with two brand spanking new 320's. Oh well. |

WSR have bought them from BMW, and paid for extra technical assistance. (which is available to all BMW Independants)

From what was said at the launch, BMW would provided tech support for testing and the 1st three races only.

From the main man, originally posted at btcc.net:

However Honda haven't paid the manufacturers entry fee, hence they are not eligible for either title. Does make me wonder if there might not be a factory Honda effort run by Dynamics coming in a year or two... Last edited by Hazard; 10 Apr 2007 at 21:11.

Can anyone tell me the exact circuit configuration the BTCC will use?
Alan Gow mentions that they will be using the whole of Turn 1 this time (No Chicane) but I could do with a definative track layout |

From http://www.btcc.net/html/circuit_detail.php?id=11
They've corrected it from the earlier version but it's still not quite right. Turn one is the banked version, not the chicane. |

Race schedule is here - they're taking a gamble on Rockingham's car parking facilities by putting the 3rd BTCC race last on the bill!
Free TV coverage is currently scheduled as:

i reckon taking out the first chicane may reduce in less overtaking. though it'd be great to see touring cars go round an oval bend lol

Not sure where I'm going to perch for this one. Might go for T1 grandstand. Might go for T4. I agree that there will be an interesting first few laps into Deene. Me, I'll be happier the week after. I'll be doing T1/T2/T3/T4 in Europe's fastest saloon racing series. |

I think the Rock will suit the BeeEmms more than Brands did, I reckon CT and MJ will be fighting for the win.

I doubt the Seat is making up time on the infield quite a bit! Might be a different story come the race when they are in traffic.
