He specialises in it, so I wouldn’t take what he says as fact, he likes to put his spin on everything, especially to get any blame away from himself.

I think that's just trying to find an excuse for not getting the budget together. I don't see any reason why Hamilton not completing the season would financially impact HMS. I think it's a case of not having a deal put together, so sell the TBL rather than have to hand it back to TOCA (which has already been suggested). Unless the rules are different for loaned TBLs? Motorbase finished the year using the one allowed driver change after all

No budget as the car was uncompetitive **** and the driver an arrogant prick. Just a guess mind you.

They already have a third car. The shell has been prepared, it's just never been fitted with mechanical parts.

Sutton and Moffat confirmed at an expanded Laser Tools team. Didn’t watch the full social media piece so don’t know if they gave any details on where the TBLs came from though

There’s something not completely unexpected. Hope Sutton goes well in it. Just need to find a source

I think signing Ash is the best thing they can do, I can see them moving up the grid now

The two Infinitis will be new builds, not the existing cars. |

Good to see Ash back in BTCC for another year but I'm not sure whether Laser Tools Infiniti will be a car in which he'll be able fight for title. Hopefully I'll be proved wrong.

So baldy got no money Scott has somehow twisted the Moffats arms to add Bankrupt Motor Racing Racing to the Laser branding?
'eres a little blonde orphan if you do so guv'nor. 'ee's pretty nifty init. I reckon said little lad will take the car to being a race winner and help young Aidan develop his racecraft. Think the Moffats are genuinely onto a winner. |

I don't see why the re-engineered Infiniti cant move up the grid, the Avensis was turned from mediocre to a top car, as was the CC.
I don't understand the hate for the Alfa, Austin's results we very similar in Toyota. |

I'll be very interested to see what BMR bring to this exciting new joint venture, not sure they even got a mention in the BTCC press release.
In other news, apparently a past champion will be returning to the grid next year. |
