ETCC news, BMW getting in more hot water!
BMW could end up in more hot water with their rivals. The Alfa and Volvo teams want to switch to a racing gearbox, rather than a road based transmission. But BMW want the rules to stay as they are, which they demanded as part of their entry to the series. It's the V8's all over again! Briton Chris Buncombe looks to have lost his RJN motorsport drive after failing to get the required sponsorship. he will be replaced by a fully sponsored driver soon. CibiEmme hope to have another civic availible for silverstone, with the second out in Brno, round 3. And Kia have shown interest in joining the series. They had representitives at magny Cours, but so did Renault/Nissan, SEAT and Opel. SEAT are building a super 2000 SEAT Toledo, which has yet to be approved. Sorry about the long post but I'm in a hurry with my DT coursework which has to be in tomorrow!
