He had only described 2022 as a sabbatical. Possibly the sale of one to HARD. will be used to fund a 2023 drive?

Although I note that the ex-Ciceley TBLs are described as being 'purchased' whereas one of Boardley's is described as 'secured' by HARD.

Slightly disappointed there isn't a new team coming up (suppose the Boardley one is a bit up in the air, probably go to HARD again?) Guess it didn't work out for Graves but then we've heard nothing from them this year.

Speedworks had the third TBL last year, wonder if they'll use it this time!

Nice to see Hill getting another year with MB/WSR. He really came of age last year. Look forward to more of the same this year

Be interesting to see who ends up Speedworks now they are running 3 cars

Boardley had 2 last year although one was being lent to HARD. They have now purchased it.

I think that Boardley may use his TBL and have the car run by Team HARD. Given his preference for RWD, I wondered if he might try and acquire the 5th BMW 330e?

It does make sense - although from WSR's perspective and the financial implications, I wonder if a Q50 is a more likely prospect.


(Also noting that Carl was due to drive a Q50 for one round last season)

I don't believe you'll see any Q50s on the grid next year.

Bobby Thompson stays at HARD. Pleased to see him back, but even kinda knowing it wasn't going to happen it's a little disappointing he's not with a better placed team.

If he can improve as much as last year hopefully he'll pick up some good results.
