Smiley's IG stories show his 2022 car saying it is looking good for the new owner - I wonder if JAS are working to get a car to Restart earlier than April?

Smiley is definitely getting an FL5. He told that to Duncan Vincent from Knockhill in an interview this weekend. Reckons he might be the first person to race it in the world. The championship winning car is being delivered to Switzerland straight from Autosport on Sunday night.

Carl Boardley has shown interest in the Leon Competition that was on the TCR stand - I think we could see him joining the grid

"Lewis Kent confirmed that he will step back from racing in the series in 2023 and that he will be on the pitwall overlooking operations with the outfit

Seems like Lewis is not racing this year at least not in UK. The team running just the Veloster

He could be racing in another TCR series as a step up

Doesnt sound like it though

Ah, thanks. He was quite unwell at points last year IIRC, maybe that has something to do with it.

Would love to see Lewis in BTCC.
Didn't he outpace Jackson in a Motorbase test in the wet?

25 full-season entries already plus a few more on top to come. Estimated to be 80% new-gen cars.

Really good news!

Impressive. I was critical of them when they were struggling so only fair I say "well done" when they get it right. 25 full season entries should make it a good watch this season.

Saw Stewart Lines on Facebook saying that the Subaru (one or two?) will be back in 2023.
Didn't say whether it's the same team/driver though.

Somehow I don't think Whorton-Eales would be too keen!

I love the car but I think someone would have to be very desperate... Surprised its homologation has lasted this long!
