Perhaps it could be something like the failed project of the Land Rover Evoque in the BTCC in 2013. http://www.thecheckeredflag.co.uk/wp...an-Thorney.jpg |

So Abt will be running two Bentleys, does this mean no M-Sport at the race this year do we assume? Maybe just in a support capacity for Abt.

HTP and M-Sport both raced last year, I don't expect it to be any different this year with Abt instead of HTP.

HTP only ran a single car last year though, didn't they? Abt's release specifies two, so was just wondering if there were any others; I could see them dropping the M-Sport programme from N24 but I hope it continues, would be great to have three or four cars again.

I guess we'll have to wait and see. M-Sport ran two and HTP one, yes.

Stunned about the 120 kph speed limit under double waved yellows!!!
How on earth are drivers gonna be able to bring their car to a stop when do come around the corner at that speed to find a car blocking the track for instance??? There are numerous of turns on the Nordschleife where 120 is not far from the absolute top speed at those spots.... This will make things more dangerous instead of decreasing them, stupid move! |

It is very complicated to make races that keep happy big teams with tons of manufacturer support like HTP, Phoenix or Manthey and 3 friends on a 2004 Clio Cup.

Confirmed that no M-Sport this year, the two Abt cars will be Bentley's only representation.

That's a substantial investment of cash, to have bought four new cars. What will happen to the five Continentals they had?
