In other news Dick Dastardly may be Motorbases mystery man.

All respect for motorbase lost. They're now the laughing stock of btcc. Serious about a championship challenge? Haha pull the other one. What a joke.

As much as I didn’t expect that to happen, ever, I can see Motorbase’s logic. Dynamics obviously thought he was good enough.

"I don’t think I have been in a place where I could really show what I can do"

Forgotten about driving for WSR, Dynamics and 888 then?

You were at Dynamics mate - you showed you what you could do alright - fail to pay the bills.

Holy ****!

And there it is! this seasons Andy Neate moment is the man himself!

So that's Motorbase with 3 brand new cars and only one decent driver, great stuff.

Well that was unexpected!

I was just thinking earlier... Motorbase cars in build were red with a grey roof... Shedden testing at Knockhill wearing no branded clothing except a red and grey Tunnocks hat 🤔

All irrelevant now though!

Anyone else think that Dave Bartrum should have just made up with Mat Jackson before he signed for PMR? Since having a tantrum and throwing Mat out Motorbase have been largely underwhelming. Signing Andy Neate is a new low.

Hahahaha. That press release from Motorbase is a masterclass in sugar coating a turd. I think I probably wouldn't have referred to his previous BTCC at all to save the embarrassment. The comment on not being in the right place to perform is absolutley hilarious. The three best teams from the past 20 years aren't any good, LOL!!!

To be fair the standard of the grid is still pretty high so Andy Neate trailing round at the back of the grid isn't going to offend me too much.
