WSR SLIMS DOWN TO TWO CARS FOR BTCC

-

The WSR British Touring Car Championsh­ip team will field only two cars in the series for at least the opening four races of the 2020 campaign after the withdrawal of Andrew Jordan.

Jordan was forced to abandon his plans following the Covid19 crisis, but the WSR team retains three entries on the BTCC grid.

Team boss Dick Bennetts said: “We have had lots of people in touch, but I really don’t want to commit to anything unless I can get a driver in place for part of this year and all of next. It’s not easy finding someone who isn’t a numpty and has the relevant budget. We would not run someone just for the sake of it.”

The BTCC kicks off at Donington Park on August

1-2, and then enters a run of four races in five weekends.
