2022 was the first of a multi-year contract with HARD.

"I have never felt more at home in a team than I do at Team HARD. and that has been one of the main contributing factors to remaining here. [...] To have the security of knowing that I will be on the grid for years to come is amazing."

Turkington announcement must be imminent. He's broken his social media silence to post a thank you to a sponsor, who then replied with "It has been an honour Colin and we are all looking forward to 2023 with team Turkington and WSR.".

I would be very surprised if Colin is not back with WSR.

Not sure it meets NGTC criteria though.

OT -

Which does expose a bugbear of mine - the use of #Hashtags without capitalisation. Capitalised hashtags make life easier for the visually impaired who might be using screen reader technology. I'm surprised that the marketing at big concerns such as Alfa Romeo would allow non-capitalised hashtags.

Remember #susanalbumparty

If we're not, we will be soon.

I guess a rebranding / relaunching could be quantified as this huge announcement.

Turkington plans for 2023 should be revealed today. Won’t spoilt the news but details in Motor Sport News.

Also there’s an interview with Matt Neal. Sheddon likely for Dynamics and more rumours of Rowbottom being on the move.
