Nothing on Andy's web site yet.

I think everyone will find this link very, very interesting!

Have a look at the second driver number #26.

I personally didn’t see this happening and would have thought he would have stayed in the same team as last season.

I wonder if it will be in motorsport news tomorrow or autosport on Thursday.

Im not too surprised by this. Matt deserved a good drive, and hopefully he can do the business in the "Reasonably Priced Car".

Good luck to him.

Now that is interesting, Matt Allison in a Chevy. Hope he does well. Hope the official announcement is soon.

I would think that IS the official announcement

Team RAC have announced Steven Jelley as their 2nd driver for 2008;

Wow, two surprise announcements. Re Norwich local boy Matt Allison - Motorbase Performance still haven't announced their drivers yet, interesting who replaces him and who they get as their number 2 driver. Also interesting know why Allison wasn't retained as he had quite a good season but was plagued by bad luck.

Stephen Jelley joining Team RAC - now that did come out of the blue! Quite a career change for him to switch to touring cars, especially at such a high level. Does this mean he's given up on his single seater career?
