Hard Brisky running 4 cars, so someone is either gone or one down from last year |

Not really a fan of these big teams.
The VW is still the best looking car on the grid. |

It will be interesting to see what Matt Simpson decided to do with his TBL, if Honda do change cars as rumoured, will he pay up for a new model or stay with his current car, either still run by Dynamics or take it elsewhere? |

Wasn't Gilham refused the 4th TBL a few years back?
Hopefully that means we'll see Burns back, but I hope Hill and Epps move to a front running team. There already seems to be about 5 drivers rumoured for the 2 seats at WSR but I do remember seeing Epps do some BMW track days a few months back... At this point, I would be very suprised (and disappointed) to see the MG's back. I know there are rumours of TPR moving away from the old Focus, but are there any chances of Motorbase doing so as well after a disappointing performance last year? There is also at least 1 race winning Avensis unused now (possibly 2 if SW change) so that could be a candidate for a team wanting to change car. |

I am speculating but seriously expect a maximum of 4 cars for Warren. There will be no MGs: again that is speculation but given the state of those cars, the departure of ATS and the chaos that is MG UK it would fit. JP hopping ship is still on my speculation radar... |

it’s the opposite. Gow has actually been saying he wants to reduce the grid. he said in his speech at the TOCA awards (i was there) that he would like the grid number to fall by at least 4 cars

He also does track work for Fiat/Abarth/Alfa and many other manufacturers, but that doesn't means it's anything to do with a BTCC drive, it just helps to pay the rent.

Hope Lines can find somone decent to put in his Focus
The car ran well with Cook driving, no reason why that can't be a top 10 outfit. |

I think Warren Scott has decided to keep Mr Gow happy too by not running 4 cars from one team 😉 |

BMR/888 stable, HARD/Brisky stable, With the number of Hondas and Fords on the grid, perhaps TD and Motorbase may look at bringing teams into their stables? |

I didn't know that; thanks for the info. Quality over quantity? Having said that, there were less lame ponies last year.
