The Rest of the Field
The British Touring Car Championship is nothing short of a cut throat world. While we relish in the thought of
supporting the most successful team on the grid, we cannot ignore the fact that there are another 28 drivers on the
grid, all with the same intention... to win. So lets take a brief look at the rest of the field.
West Surrey Racing - BMW
2018 Drivers Champion Colin
Turkington heads up the team
along with Andrew Jordan and Tom
Olliphant. This has got to be a top
contender for the 2019 titles.
Definitely a team to watch.
Team BMR - Suburu
For me, during 2108, Ash Sutton was
the dark horse with plenty of threat.
Although he had a problem or two at
the season start, wins did come in.
Senna Proctor steps up alongside
Ash completing the BMR line-up.
Speedworks Racing - Toyota
Here’s another man you can never
right off. Fast, brave and very
clever. Tom Ingram is definitely a
title contender for 2019. He took
2018 to the wire just being pipped
by Colin Turkington.
AmD Cobra Exhausts - Audi
Sam Tordoff and Rory Butcher pilot
the Audi for 2019. Both drivers
proved their talent furing the 2018
season and both will be hungry for
the silverware. Another pair not to
be taken lightly this yeat.
AmD Trade Price - Audi
Now here is a threat if ever I saw one,
the old fox and Ex F1 star, Mark Blundell
enters the ring. This I am looking
forward to. Mark is teamed up with Jake
Hill who returns to BTCC after splitting
up with his team mid season 2018.
BTC Racing - Honda
Chris Smiley takes to the Honda
Civic Type R again with BTC. 2018
was a solid season with a good
points haul. Chris teamed up with
two times race winner Josh Cook.
A very strong team for 2019.
Ciceley Motorsport - Mercedes
This could be the team to watch this
year with Adam Morgan’s experience
and Daniel Rowbottom making his
BTCC debut but bringing a host of
racing experience with him. A great
combo, I think.
