So they've got 22 full season entries. Apart from round 1 where it'll only be 19, so 19 full season entries then? I hate that kind of reporting... Almost as stupid as saying your championship has a global reach of 10 billion people. |

Well, according to the pdf posted by Mark0994 they'll have 23 cars at Bahrain (20 if all three TBAs are no-shows).
And I think any team that pays the entry fee for the full season is considered a full-season entry, no matter when they actually enter the series. |

That's my understanding as well, I just find it annoying that they put out a press releas saying 22 full season entries and two days later publish a entry list that only has 19 filled seats for round 1. Just looked through the entry list once more. Does anybody know the difference between a Leon TCR and a Leon Cup Racer? |

It has sequential gearbox, better cooling and some aerodynamic changes. |

I thought the same about Hezemans, but it probably makes more sense to do a full season in the Benelux series and establish himself a bit more before stepping up - also surprised not to see Rangoni back with Top Run, but I guess he'd be first choice for the second car |

Cannot find confirmation.
During the BoP testing at Valencia he tested an Opel of Target Competition. With him already raced few events for Target I assumed he would drive full time for them this season. |

Target Competition confirmed that they will have 7 Astra's but question is are all of them delivered to team.

Isn't Hezemans Junior (Junior?) not considered an Am so far? I doubt he'd be above "Silver" in SRO-terms.

I bet ADAC Series. In his Outings last year he was very quick and in my opinion better than Belicchi so that it makes no sense to brink him later in the season, because that cost him a good place in the rating and Target has confirmed to bring only 2 Astra in Bahrain.

Totally wrong . There is no categorisation in TCR Benelux. If you'd want to enter a Honda with Fernando Alonso and Stoffel Vandoorne, you'd be accepted.
Amateur drivers however can drive on their own, but not a single gentleman driver has expressed his ambition to compete in the Benelux, AFAIK. There is a ranking for Junior driver (max. 21 years old), best team, best car and best female driver (if there's at least three of them). |
