I'd been told that a BTCC driver with a strong connection to a German car was coming to TCR UK. I was thinking 'Hope it's Rob Austin'.
Honestly (no offence), I can't remember Rick Kerry, and I thought Plato raced the first diesel.

TCR UK reveals new £75,000 prize fund

https://www.touringcartimes.com/2023...00-prize-fund/

Interesting initiative.

From TouringCarTimes,

"At each race meeting, the driver scoring pole position will take £1,000 with the top three in race one being awarded £1,500, £1,000 and £500 respectively. Prizes to the top three in the reverse grid race will be handed out on a £750, £500 and £250 basis, with the same prizes being used for the final race of the Knockhill triple-header.

When the season comes to an end, the overall champion will take home £15,000, with the runner-up securing £10,000 and third place taking £5,000. The Diamond Trophy and Tom Walker Memorial winners will both earn £2,500.

Carless Racing Fuels will also support an additional award for the ‘TCR Driver of the Day’, who will win a 54 litre keg of control race fuel."

He’s been racing in the two BMW series in a similar (but not the same) 1 series BMW recently.

The car did the majority of the 2007 season with Rick Kerry behind the wheel and then reappeared in 2009 for a few rounds with Nick Leason.

Interesting point - as when the TCR regs came out the small BMWs were still RWD, now the 1 and 2 GC are both FWD it does open up the possibility. But then again, we haven't seen anyone take the Mercedes A Class (or CLA).

Jac Constable now with Rob Boston Racing - I wonder if him and Newsham leaving PMR means that we won't see PMR on the grid at all for 2023?

Luke Sargeant in for some rounds now too.
I thought there was to be more drivers. More than 30.
It's gone a bit quiet over there.
