Some blokes and a bird will drive some cars.

Some other blokes and some other birds will not drive some cars.

That's that cleared up

The letters O,U and T were chosen deliberately.

And - why go for the obvious choice, hide the obvious in the code to deter other's from adopting.......


In seriousness though - there are:
A) Signed, publicised deals.
B) Signed, not publicised deals.
C) Unsigned deals.

I'm not sure why there is an obsession over how many deals are in the categories of B and C? A healthy discussion, debate and speculation can be had over anything that is not A, regardless of which other category they fall into.

For example - we know that there are 23 publicised deals. Rumour and discussion can be had over all of the remaining 9 seats, can they not?

Ah, well there's confirmed and there is confirmed.

Emu of Rod Hull and Emu fame may well be about to embark on a new career in BTCC. A reporter went to interview him about this exciting rumour and hasn't been seen since...

As long as you define your variables properly. I don't believe ten-tenths is strictly typed

That would be awesome! White suits BMWs a lot better than black.

Almost - there are a few (very minor) differences.




The main difference I see is that the rear stripes are inverted in sequence and the front stripes are moved from the arches to the bonnet.

Personally - I think it's already been done, and this is slightly worse than the last time.

It's also an interesting choice of logo from the sponsor on the rear quarter. I know it's not copyrighted, but my first thought was that the team has an affiliation with the RAF in some way, not that a composites manufacturer.......

It may be similar but I love it. A classic, BMW livery, a lot better than the black one.

I don’t understand how such a simple livery which uses iconic M colours doesn’t look good. It should work but it doesn’t.

Love the look of this - classic BMW Motorsport style livery....if Jake's car ends up being close to the render they released when they announced the Rokit deal it will appease those who preferred the matt black livery - at least we won't get Colin & Jake confused on track!

Black wheels? Bleagh!

I guess factory BMW's have traditionally been predominately white, however I just think the 1-series looked better.

I think that is connected to the 3rd car running under the MB Motorsport banner.
It would not be a surprise to see that space change over the course of the season with different blue square affiliates being promoted.
