I don't think we'll see him at Dynamics.

One Motorsport seem to have gone a bit quiet. Are we not due a driver announcement this week? I’d have expected a few tweets from them building up to a driver reveal.

*Think it was the same with Ricky Collard too (might’ve been someone else) so best keep an eye for when Speedworks start testing! |

Really would be very surprised to see Plato back - he said he wouldn't be interested unless a well-funded manufacturer team came about (or words to that effect).
Also I think it would be very odd if he returns to [what was] BTC Racing. He complained when at PMR that the car wasn't fast enough in a straight line, then when to BTC which also used the TOCA engine (albeit it was MSport last year; Swindon when at PMR) and complained about the same issue. I don't recall his results really being any better at BTC than they were at PMR - in fact a quick look at Wiki shows his results were much better at PMR. I don't think we'll see him driving, but that is all conjecture. The only thing playing on my mind is that there's been nothing from Dynamics. Could they and Plato have somehow schemed together with a new works entry??? Naaaa surely not... ![]() |

He subsequently said he'd be interested in a return if it was a multi-year deal, not necessarily with a manufacturer.

He just wants to get away from the scrabbling around to pull deals together every 12 months. Remove the stress and enjoy the racing.

Plato always said the door is open to a return. However most of the signs until yesterday have said he was sticking by his retirement decision

Regarding the supposed Plato to Dynamics rumour- he and Matt Neal are good friends and have been for some years (despite everything).
Is it possible that Plato might join Dynamics to help them out sponsorship-wise? Rowbottom leaving and taking Cataclean with him was undoubtedly a hefty blow to TD. It was also quite unexpected. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Plato does Dynamics a favour and brings the likes of Adrian Flux to the table. |

News incoming from Michael Crees. A move away from the BTCC? |

I vaguely remember hearing somewhere that one of the chassis has been hobbled slightly since it was nearly destroyed in its first ever race weekend (the ex-Geddie, Mitchell, Powell, Oliphant, Boardley car) so a replacement may be necessary. |

Don’t believe the 4th driver was ever billed as a ‘completing’ the line-up or anything like that either. |

I would hope that one of the cars could be leased to a new team entering the series.
