Caterhams at Silverstone will be the race of the weekend make my words. Saw them at brands hatch as part of the GT Europe series event and it was the best race I’ve seen live.

Dexter also giving the cupra a run out. As well as data gathering and development for Hard, I assume this is laser also assessing their options for the infinity replacement

https://www.team-hard.com/store/trac...ition-hotlaps/ So either - the speculation that there has been a disagreement between the two parties is wide of the mark. Or - Moffat is fulfilling his contractual obligation. If there has been a falling out, it is a big decline from - Bob Moffat: "With our ongoing collaboration with Tony Gilham and Team HARD, we are really looking forward to the 2022 season now." |

Sign of the times that even TOCA is having to piece together the extra supports (like any other race organiser), not the usual queue this side to be considered approach.
Ginetta a big gap to fill. |

I'm sure there was a 'press release' from Laser Tools earlier in the year saying they were parting ways with Hard - I can't find it at all now.

By the time Ginetta decided to switch, a lot of other series had already planned their 2023 calendars. I think the combination of Caterhams, Miglias, Radicals and Legends that will be filling the gaps is actually pretty strong given the short notice. |

But the very fact that Ginetta were able to switch so late demonstrates that TOCA were at their whim rather than the other way round. If there was a whole line of series queuing up to have (and crucially, pay) for a slot on the package, it would have been resolved months ago. The reason there's a mix of series next season is nobody would pay for a full season. Obviously TOCA/Alan Gow are hoping that changes for 2024.

I think some people don't realise just how expensive a slot on the TOCA schedule is, even just for one round. |

It will be a big gap to fill. But at least we should have a bit more variety in support series in 2023

Seems a pretty decent solution, bit more variety throughout the year and hopefully one of these series may commit fully in 2024

Just circling back to a point from many weeks ago; seems that Hill will be leading a 2-car MB Motorsport team of BMWs. Question now is where does Adam Morgan go to?
