The Ciceley press release doesn't actually say that they will be on the BTCC grid in 2021

Assuming they are, what are the obvious/logical options?
- New A Class hatch - A class saloon/CLA which should be slippy-er than the hatch - C class to go RWD - Focus from Motorbase |

"Although we are all sad to say goodbye to our Mercs, we are very excited about our 2021 plans" They haven't specifically said they will in BTCC in 2021, but I think we can read it that they will be. |

I'm relieved it's not their departure that's been confirmed. A good call to switch to a new car, I'm curious what it'll be

Glad to know Cicely are looking towards a new car for 2021. Can’t wait to see what it is, exciting times ahead

Never heard of it before today. Not exactly the hugest amount of coverage out there for what it supposed to be quite a presitgious race, particularly as the FFF was live streamed the week before
Ho-hum, t'was ever thus in motorsport. Quote:

How likely do we think they'd move away from the Mercedes brand, given Ciceley's link with them?

Still going to be big boots to fill in the office, my guess it will be someone who is already in the industry.

I wonder if they will continue? Is there any other series for TPC to go to?

Only here could we possibly read a post with the words:
'Do not miss this! Tomorrow 4pm BTCC 2021 Announcement.' and a copy of the BTCC official championship logo in the associated image and reach the conclusion that it might be about another series...... |
