The team has already secured the driver’s contract, but there is some speculation about the team’s future.
2021 calendar
The British Touring Car Championship has revealed the BTCC 2021 calendar. While the calendar still includes ten events over the course of thirty races, there are some small changes. The first three rounds of the season will be held at the Thruxton Circuit in Hampshire without spectators, with the second event taking place at the Snetterton 300 circuit in Norfolk. The BTCC also confirmed that there will be a full grid of 29 cars in the season.
