BTCC The Annual 2016 Predictions Thread

Righty ho, we know the entry list for the 2016 season, so it's time for our 5 predictions. Make them as simple - first time winners - or as obscure - number of sponsors on Jake Hill's helmet at Knockhill - as you want!

Here's mine, which will no doubt be miles out

1) A Subaru Levorg won't complete any of the three races at Brands Hatch
2) Team HARD. will change one of their drivers at least once this season
3) Rob Austin will get a few podiums for Handy
4) Kelvin Fletcher will miss a round for filming commitments
5) MG will surprise a few people with their pace

Apologies to all the drivers I've cursed now

1. Andy Neate will fail to finish in the top 15 of the championship.
2. At least one driver will end the season with a negative score.
3. We'll have another full season with no wet races.
4. Josh Cook will win at least two races.
5. Each race at Brands Indy will be interrupted by the safety car.

Biscuits In A Red Bull should be qualifying in the top 10 on the gridBiscuits In A Red Bull should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
1 - Motorbase are underwhelming and pick up only 3 wins all season
2 - Donington Park race 3 sees only 3 full laps of racing
3 - Neate gets one reverse grid pole but finishes the first lap in a tyre wall
4 - Turkington outscores Plato by just 1 point
5 - It looks like another all dry season but the final 2 rounds are very, very wet...

BillWiskins should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
1: A Subaru on the podium in Race 1, Round 1.
2: That fancy Ford engine gets a boost cut or some such, whining ensues
3: Welch looks to score good points in a reverse grid race but is taken out through no fault of his own.
4: Plato does something mildly controversial - is immediately threatened with death
5: Jordan looks strong for the first half/two thirds but ends up missing out on the title.

1) Tordoff for pole and Race 1 win at Round 1.
2) Turkington to finish ahead of Plato in the points.
3) Jeff Smith to score a podium before the season is out.
4) Much deliberation over the soft tyre in the early rounds, before we realise it "going off" too quickly is simply due to the cold temperatures at that time of year.
5) Not all cars will make Knockhill.

1) Jordan will be champion
2) The Levorg will prove to be a desperate mistake (although I hope not!)
3) There will be a season-long driving standards controversy around the nudge overtake
4) At least one result will be overturned as a result
5) There will only be 28 entries by the end of the year
