Can't see anyone developing a new car before the 2027 rules until we know exactly what direction things are going to go in. |

The natural cycle , Group A , Supertouring both withered due to rising costs. Current rules going the same way. GT3 also heading the same way - it’s what Motorsport does! |

This is the point that most people don't understand. A consistent rule set is great, but you get to a point where the cost to gain 1/10th becomes massive. Then all costs go through the roof. There is no easy answer to stop it happening, otherwise championships would do it already.

I'm surprised nobody is getting excited for no reason about 56 year old Jason Plato hanging around with Excelr8 this weekend and last.

He and Neal were interviewed on the grid at Silverstone. Plato had to quickly cover as he couldn't remember the name of the driver who had invited him to be there.

Seems to have taken on some kind of media partnership with Halstead now, lots popping up on Twitter.

Pretty sure Addison mentioned George Gamble was looking at a return next year?

Hopefully he's staying off the booze. Still find it incredible that it isn't a bigger story. Then again Frank Wrathall was racing for a few years with a Death by Dangerous Driving prosecution ongoing.
