But the real question on everyone's mind, where does Alex McDowell go?


Due to his general levels of overall enthusiasm and excitement, probably to the DTM.

He's too exciting for DTM.

I reckon a few of the questions we will be asking will be announced at the Autosport.

Don't carry anything sharp... or wear shoelaces for that matter.

I guess his falling out with the team ten years ago is ancient history now...


A lot has changed in 10 years. For a start Yvan Muller is no longer team No 1.

All jokes aside, Plato never really fell out with 888. He actually fell out with Muller and the fact that Yvan was supposedly the team leader.

If we don't see you on Friday, I'll assume you've been bored to death.

TH Motorsport's main investor has withdrawn, so there's a possibility that we won't see the Skoda this year.

According to Spanner monkey on 10-tenths (who is always right), Collard will be in an RAR Audi.

Good news about Collard (but possibly bad for WSR). Shame for TH and the Skoda, I hope they manage to get onto the grid this year.

And as mentioned earlier in the thread, Adam Morgan has been confirmed at Speedworks as his prize for winning the BTCC-supporting Ginetta Supercup in 2011.

I was the only person watching him being interviewed, no-one else cared :lol:

Oh, and Boardman's STR had a different livery. So I guess they're confirmed.

Plato said he hopes to be on the grid this year. Oh, and he moaned about the turbos in his interview :lol:

Here is said interview: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/96978 I was behind somewhere :p

Yup, it looks very nice. Didn't see Tom so I guess he was elsewhere.

That looks great. Perhaps we will be getting good liveries this year again.

Looks like we may have major news coming at the Media day, too.

I was reading the latest Autosport magazine and there's an article on Plato. A bit of a "Who do you think you are" article. I never knew that Plato was related to Keith O'dor. They were cousins.

And they've both flipped at Donington at the Craner Curves #pointlessfact

I've known that for a while - way back on the old btccpages.com forum where Plato used to post it wasn't a good idea to mention O'dor's death - back then Plato was still very angry with Biela (I think) for hitting O'dor's car and killing him.

How do you figure that out from the article? Or should I watch the video to understand?
