So, if Moffat may or not be lacking funding, and may or may not be switching to the Cupras, could we see them swallowed up under the HARD banner? If HARD are lacking something it's definitely more entries... Definitely seems like a Moffat and Cupra connection: https://twitter.com/aidenmoffat16/st...865791489?s=21 Last edited by Evantra; 5 Dec 2022 at 18:03. |

That looks like one of Hard's best ever liveries

Cannot imagine Sutton or Cammish being very happy having another year with the Focus, its simply too slow.

It is but I agree with Mick - too many times the car looked like a driving brick. Focus is not slow, after all Sutton was in the contention until the end but it's too slow in comparison to BMW or Hyundai and if it hadn't been for super consistency of Sutton and his extra defensive driving in what I feel was most of the races this season he wouldn't have fought for the title or would've been a very outside contender.

If I was a betting man, I would put my money on Sutton in the Focus for the championship in 2023. His quality in RWD was plain to see, and the switch to FWD went well, and with a season of that under his belt I think he will be in the mix in the Focus. I don't understand why people think that the car is slow. It may not be a new car, but the results were good and I recon will improve again next year.

Gonna be interesting to see who picks up Laser Tools entry. Could we see a new team and car on the grid? Exciting times ahead

For clarification - the 29 named TBLs in the first column of the table represent the 29 confirmed entries for 2023 and will become the 29 cars on the grid.
Where the confirmed team name has already been publicised, these are given in bold. Where there is a historical link to a potential team name, I have entered with a ? Where the team name is unknown, I have entered the TBL holder. Some of this is a little bit of guesswork based on what is in the public domain and will no doubt change over the coming weeks (such as the Laser Tools withdrawal of sponsorship). AFAIK, the only confirmed team names for 2023 are 'Bristol Street Motors with EXCELR8 TradePriceCars.com' and 'NAPA Racing'.

The car did'nt . Sutton nearly did !!. Without Ash the Focus was nowhere, yes I know Cammish won one race, but he was again nowhere, in the vast majority of races. The other two Focus's were back markers in nearly every race (lack of budget for those two ??). Last edited by mick bennett; 8 Dec 2022 at 17:33. |
