Whilst I remember, 888 said in Motorsport News a couple of weeks ago that they have a number of BTCC options next year. They will be in the series 100% though.

On the 7 Champs, if Colin does it in 2014 I think he will want to stay and defend this title. If he doesn't do it, I think he will want to stay to take a second title.

Shedden, Jordan, Plato and Neal are all practically guaranteed I think we can assume.

Giovanardi has made it clear he really wants to be in the BTCC, Airwaves will really want him, still think he has a win to come this year.

Menu is less sure, depends what else he will be offered. Scott wants to sort out the BMR line-up early, hence the Smith signing. So if he is staying at BMR, we will know soon enough.

I think it all depends on other offers and from other Touring Car series, I cannot see that coming, talk of other WTCC manufactures has been sparse in 2014 and that is where I would see them going.
