I can't see it being turkington as he's already publicly stated that if he can find the funding he'll run with WSR.

He's quite busy actually: http://www.touringcartimes.com/article.php?id=4328

Giovanardi to 888? Looks like it could happen found this http://www.italiaracing.net/translat...cat=21&lang=en plus this on twitter only adds to the rumour http://twitter.com/DunlopBTCC/status/11431029033

By tomorrow evening, id say we'll have Gio at 888, Turks at WSR and a 3rd Ford.
I can dream!

Seriously though, the championship needs at least one of the two to challenge Plato and Neal.

What about Rickard Rydell in the second 888 Vectra? He isn't doing anything this season....

haha that would be awesome to see Rickard back in BTCC, but realisticly i dont know, 11 o'clock and still nothing lol looks like its gonna be a long wait today to see who it is

Wouldnt it have been a better surprise to not announce it and just send whoever it is out tomorrow and everyone be like "wow didnt see that coming"
