I haven't been since pre COVID times so not even sure what the warm up lap music is anymore , last time I went it was Let's Go by Calvin Harris and Ne-Yo.
Insomnia by Faithless would be an interesting choice but it is quite a long song. Maxi Jazz from Faithless was a massive racing fan too. |

I can't recall any music played on the warm up lap when we visited either Croft or Oulton, which we've done for the past few years. However, what I do find annoying is that they've often disrupted the commentator during the opening laps and they run the podium ceremonies.
I think that spectators would far rather know what is happening on track at that moment that is out of their view than hearing what happened in the previous race. |

He raced on the TOCA package too on Fiestas, and PCC, and David Bartrum looked after Maxi's Sierra Sapphire road car for a long time also.

Toyota sign new partnership with Fullriver Battery Group. It's not specifically mentioned but I wonder if they will be (partial) title sponsor |

I remember trying hard to think what on earth it was after kept hearing it being played. Then I was listening to Radio 2 one day and they played it and mentioned who it was, otherwise to this day I'd still not have worked out who it was. It is recognisable as an 80's child but I don't think it was a massive hit or that well known. https://youtu.be/7MgNmjR7nKg?si=iF5agF7q4Uilzum4 Sent from my CPH2173 using Tapatalk |

BBC Rally coverage used 'Jewelled' from the 'Wishful Thinking' remix album, not 'Duel'.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRpXwvuP6MI BTCC used the same version for the green flag lap a few times /pedant |

The only seats that don’t seem locked down are the 4th WSR entry, and 3rd PMR. Assuming (as Autosport indicated) Halstead has Hyundai N04, and Huff (as everyone seems to believe) is in the 4th Toyota.
Any thoughts on those two seats? Oddly very little chatter about them. |

Noticed Pearson put up an Instagram post with Halstead today, captioned “look who I bumped into”. Ronan in his race suit and Nick in Bristol Street jackets (not a race suit).
I assume they were both coincidentally at the same track for coaching etc? |

PMR feels like the hardest to guess as Adam has done a great job of finding drivers from other series . Personally I'd like to see Ash Hand have another go in the Astra but he's another I don't know what he has budget wise.
WSR feels like George Gamble is the obvious move but Autosport were saying otherwise last week and Gamble had options in GTs. |

Personally I'd like to see him in the BTCC, last year was quite a letdown but his rookie season showed he could really go well in touring cars but we'll see. |

I thought he would have been the perfect fit for WSR, driver that already has experience with the 3 Series and bring substantial sponsorship from Car Gods too. When the expanded Car Gods backing rumour did the rounds I assumed it was for a title sponsor multi car entry somewhere else but that could have changed of course. I just think the move to FWD for Gamble wasn't ever really going to work out but I definitely think back in RWD he could contend. |

I just personally think after all his efforts in other championships, it'll be a well deserved move up the ladder for him.
I also think he's a far better driver than some others on the BTCC grid, who are only there because they've got money & not the talent to match ![]() |
