(It is also the weekend of my birthday so I would also be minded to buy a celebratory beer for anyone else on the forum who attends and makes themselves known).
The Silverstone round is now listed on their website's event list.

No timetable yet, but listed as 6th and 7th, so doesn't look like it is being moved to the Monday.

My earlier offer of Free Birthday Beers still stands.

There is a timetable for Silverstone on British GT website but guess this could change being so far away.

This is a downsize from the original 2 Artura's they planned to run, but may well be because of delivery timelines for the Artura, or maybe Ratcliffe decided to step up to GT3 instead.

7 more cars to capacity grid, 15 in GT3 currently, 12 in GT4.

Kind of how its been playing out the last few years, I'd be surprised to see more than 17 GT3's which means they would need 5 more GT4's to be announced for a capacity grid. Maybe we see 33-34 cars instead of 35.

Great news, it’s going to be a McLaren fest again… still haven’t heard from Fox Motorsport and 7tSix both McLaren GT3 runners from last year. Also no word from ABBA yet, or Stellar, but they are unlikely I’d say.

Seems mad to even suggest, but we could see 20 cars in GT3!!!

I doubt we will see Fox Motorsport as Nick Halstead is driving for Excelr8 in BTCC this year.

Not heard anything from Toyota / Speedworks either.

Anna have been out testing in the Merc. So I’d expect they are still doing something with that this year be it Brit GT or GT cup.

Surprised to see Cazoo sponsoring the Tillbrook/Clutton car considering the companies financial issues.

I think Cazoo sponsoring them is nothing compared to how much they spend sponsoring other stuff like Darts.

Slightly less head turning than last years sponsor...

Enduro announcement not really a surprise, theyve been very open that they were doing BGT again this year for quite a while.

DSC also confirming Enduro will be running a GT4, Clutton has been showing off the team's new Artura GT4 in recent weeks on social media, so i imagine that will be either the 1pm announcement today from BGT, or tomorrows 9am announcement.

The enduro GT4 puts us a 30 cars, 5 away from capacity.

Ram havent formally announced yet, but have been pretty open online about running BGT this year, they are already included on my list, as is the 2nd RACELAB GT3, which was confirmed without car or drivers named when the 1st entry was posted.

Last question mark for me is in GT3 is ABBA, who are pretty likely I think to be announced, taking GT3 to 18 cars.

I would really love to see GT4 hit 15 cars.. but 13 is plenty, 31 cars total with ABBA would be a nice number, its great for the series to be able to say its a sellout, they do usual announce all cars prior to the media day where the full entry list is published

Adam vs Gounon vs Clutton vs Mitchell vs Kirchhofer vs O'Brien vs Bell among the rest is going to be really great this year.

Adam and Gounon, and Mitchell are the obvious heavyweights, but Clutton has shown plenty of times he can keep pace with them, Kirchhofer is Mclarens top gun so will be interesting to see how he shows against other Mclaren factory guys O'Brien and Bell.

Enduro GT4 confirmed.

Other GT4 entries I can think of from last year where we haven’t heard anything are Toyota / Speedworks, Newbridge Motorsport and Valluga. Not sure if we expect any to return which could boost the numbers.

O Brien is seriously quick in that JMH Mclaren. So much so I'd put him in alongside the other top GT3 Pros this year.

Set multiple fastest laps in GT Cup including the quickest at last years final BGT round along with setting the quickest time at the Asian Le Mans Dubai Race 2 just gone.
