Matt Allison has been confirmed on SEATCupra.net as the second Motorbase Performance driver.

thats good news, good to see another up and coming young driver on the grid, although i guess that Tom Ferrier must be gutted, unless they are planning on the 3rd car and he's in the line for that, or he's in talks elsewhere, after such an impressive debut in the Toledo it seemed like he was in pole position for the SEAT seat.
I expect if someone came to GR Asia with a S2000 Toledo and a suitcase full of cash, they would run it for them. That is what I hope Tom Ferrier will do seeing as the third Motorbase car IF it happens would be only a part season car.
Tom has been at Monza this week testing a GT3 PorscheQuote:
