I have no basis to agree with you, other than it sounds like a plausible possibility |

Looks like A) HARD are wanting to enter the Carrera Cup, and B) the old NGTC Avensis is up for sale. |

I can't pretend to know every thought that goes through Shaun's mind, so maybe even at that time he was considering putting Jake in a Honda. My feeling is that that just became a necessity at a later time once other drivers signed deals elsewhere. Either way, Dan has found a very good driver for the second car.

But, when they announce their final driver the hashtag frenzy will really start...... Rookie(s), returning drivers, team switches and team continuity all still to be revealed..... |

Highs and lows, it's life. I like to watch pure racing. Such as NASCAR offers currently. I also like watching tinkered with BTCC. To be honest I become more ****ed with BTCC when it's obvious tinkering has occurred - TOCA would go up in my estimation if they publicly stated a performance restriction had been applied to cars X,Y and Z to balance performance following whatever reason. A detailed technical description isn't needed, just a simple "Team BMW wiped the floor with every other mother at Donington so we've made them carry a sack of coal in the back." |

Sadly it seems so.
Mr Malcolm with respect please desist from making posts that say Poster X said Y and it's wrong. We're all motor racing fans, we enjoy BTCC (otherwise we've got lost in an internet worm hole) and it doesn't achieve anything. Jake Hill WAS going to continue in the Audi, but the Civic and necessary funding became available so plan changed. Michael Crees WAS (and still could) pilot a Team HARD CC but funding that was hoped/ expected/ promised has not (in so far as I know) materialised. So my post that I expected the first HARD announcement to be Michael was wrong; it would have been correct but circumstance did not pan out. Either take posts in good faith or "ignore" particular posters if you're not interested in their missives. Peace. |

Haha, that was my guess too. Announcement is 2:30 tomorrow, someone in the comments seems to have found some pretty good evidence for it being James,

Will be interesting to see how he gets on. Very quick racer. But so is Ant Whorton Eales and he could never really get the Audi to work.

IMO the most anticipated seats left to be confirmed are BTC Racing and the 2nd Honda of AMD
