I've made a huge mistake.
So the interesting seats left are:

The second Eurotech Honda seat - they were champions two years ago yet so far only have Jeff Smith confirmed who'll spend the year trundling around midfield. Not quite sure what the deal is with the Pirtek sponsorship, hopefully they won't just have to sell the seat to the highest bidder.

The second seat at 888 to partner Jordan. Tesco are in a spot of financial bother at the moment so I suspect they won't be putting in much money this year, I predict Jordan will be their focus and the second seat will be somebody who brings in money.

Motorbase. Ran three Ford Focus last year. Only confirmation is Alex Martin (Ferrari Challenge in 2014). I'd imagine Matt Jackson will be back unless money is an issue. Giovanardi had a weak return year so I'd favour Menu who showed more patches of speed.

Tesco are Plato's personal sponsor. Pirtek are Jordan's personal sponsor. Both will go where they go.

Hynes could well continue at 888 I guess.
Tesco are facing some serious issues due to financial mismanagement. Unless Plato already had a iron-clad contract in place before the scandal broke, there has to be a question mark over how much money they'll want to put in to the BTCC. And presumably Hynes financial situation isn't so good considering his job was at Marussia F1...

I sort of want an LMP2 car to drive to work each day, is this normal?
No. Now if you said CanAm...

You can get street-legal Lola T70s.

So Priaulx waltzes back in to the BTCC and gets pole. Plato and Turk set a time just 0.001s apart but both get gazumped by the chipper Irishman.

So they ended up abandoning the third Euro F3 race at Monza due to consistently poor driving standards! They read the drivers the riot act after a terrible race two yesterday but they still drove like a bunch of Maldonaldos.

Jack Geoff came first. It was a bit messy at the end but he held on.

Jackson massively outscored everybody else in the half-season he actually competed: 200pts in five weekends, vs Sheddon's 349 in ten. Of course, he had the advantage of bypassing the championship ballast in qualifying/race 1.
