At the end of the day it's not about results, it's about opportunity

Gravett will be in Exclr8's driver development programme. Basically that means working with Ingram and a run out at the BTCC mid-season test. Otherwise he'll be doing full season in JCW.

Nic Hamilton recently spent a day with Mercedes-AMG and was offered the chance to drive their Formula 1 simulator.
Plenty of imagery from the day can be found here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CmFI8TLP...7-0cf74f7e8a9e But - in terms of the BTCC - the following was written in an accompanying article: 'Once wheelchair-bound, Nico learned to walk at 17. In 2015, Nico became the first adaptive driver in the BTCC with ROKiT and signed a multi-year agreement this year to drive for the team for 2023 and beyond.' |

"Team HARD. Racing has today (15 December) confirmed that 2022 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship rookie, Dexter Patterson will race for the squad in 2023." |

Does this mean that ROKiT are moving their sponsorship back to Nic after taking it to the BMW of Hill? Or is that just sloppy journalism in that article? |

It feels like part of a wider driver to promote adaptive motorsport globally (F1 is referred to in the article as the 'different series') and focuses on Nic and his achievements and aspirations. ROKiT also get more than one name-check. On the face of it, it seems a credible indication of Nic's future in the BTCC. |

The latter. From the previous paragraph implies that he is currently racing with ROKiT, and also gets his name wrong - "Nico competes in the BTCC with ROKiT Racing in a specially modified car and has competed in the Renault Clio Cup before that. "

Autosport article says Aiden Moffat Racing (going to take a while to get used to not saying Laser Tools!) are looking at Cupras, but nothing 100% yet. |

They are all entries that have been rumoured, or that the team/driver in question has expressed an intent to be on the grid in 2023. Of the 4 rows listing teams - any one of them could eventually be entered with the Boardley TBL, or potentially in a form of partnership with Aiden Moffat Racing. But nothing has been attributed to those teams (AFAIK) that would give a positive indication of a link to any of those 3x TBLs. Of the 2 rows listing drivers - they have both described 2022 as a sabbatical and could potentially be in any one of the drives on the grid. But again, I have seen nothing (AFAIK) that links those drivers to a particular seat. Of the final row - we know that Gow will throw TBLs out the window to make that happen!!! |

Hopefully can go better in the Cupra than he did in the Infiniti.

Dan Lloyd has tagged @btcc so can we assume he’s in for 2023? I hope so. |

I’m guessing PMR or perhaps Speedworks. |
