So one minute the Subaru is ruining the championship because of some over exaggerated advantage, now its Sutton needs to be in a better car.

Matt has also pedalled for others in the past, so it is no certainty that he will drive for TD. The team has given more indications that Dan will be there in 2019 than Matt so far...... |

From the Honda Engine Room website: 'Matt and Dan recently sat down together to take look back over their 2018 season, and to look forward to doing it all again next year.' 'And it was BTCC rookie Dan Cammish who took his first two race victories to finish off the 2018 season in incredible style, and lay the foundations for what has the potential to be a season to remember in 2019.' And in this video, from 19:35, Dan says to Matt - 'How are we going to change that around for 2019.' There are more indications that Cammish will be in at TD next year than any of the other non-bold drivers on your list. |

I think given the comments on Twitter from both Morgan and Rowbottom, we can count the former as confirmed.

Has anyone tried actually asking the drivers on twitter?

Rowbottom - 'it will be great to be able to learn from Adam Morgan' Burgess - 'Adam and I get on very well with RowBo personally and have always wanted him in the Ciceley Motorsport set up, he and his family fit our team dynamic perfectly' Morgan will be at Ciceley Motorsport, and only if he is planning on coaching will he not be in the car. They have also hinted that Oliphant will be back - so perhaps a 3-car Ciceley team? |

Given the promo video that has been put out - I get the impression that the Moffats' plan is for a separate Laser Tools Racing Team in 2019, but the car/engineering side is still not confirmed.

The car is not a bad car,and at least matches others on the grid, tho there is a perceived advantage at certain tracks. I would like to see Sutton get on and race and any publicity be about his success rather than the teams off track issues and team mate drama |

Not a huge amount then. Was wondering if maybe they’d bag the TPR BMW as I can’t see it being back with Jelley but if he’s got no experience it’s probably too big a risk.
Unless Ciceley have plans for 4 cars of course? |

TPR entered BTCC just to run Jelley so of course Jelley will be back in that car |

These announcements are like London buses. You wait a while for one to turn, then three turn up in succession. Rob Smith in the MG, hope he goes well. And nice to ee Rowbottom get a drive in a top team, although I hope Oliphant finds a drive elsewhere as he did well in his debut season

It's looking like Moffat will be the one elsewhere. |

Their social media platforms have received much more Mercedes support recently (including the 'Ciceley Motorsport X-Class'), and they have also suggested to supporters that they can back Oliphant and Morgan in their cars for 2019. |

Looking at the 'Aidan Moffat Racing' facebook page, only a few days ago were pictures of what appears to be the merc stripped down. There is also an advert for a data engineer. So I think it looks like the Moffats are running the car themselves next year.
