I would expect that was 10 different tracks (2 layouts at Brands) rather than 10 circuits.
Cleland is a legend. :cool:

If we swapped one of the Brands layouts for Mondello that would make 10 venues, possible since Rockingham came 'online' again.

But now we have two on the 'Indy' track!
I hate that term 'Indy'! Technically it is not the 'Indy' track. They have changed the layout since they came all those years ago!
Why not the 'DTM' or 'Champ Car' track?
Why not read the full story? http://www.motorbaseperformance.co.u...e-lens-01.html

Donington has two alternative tracks with the Melbourne loop and without, and Oulton Park has theoretically three layouts. So that makes 14/15 possible tracks.

There are 3 different track layouts at Silverstone..
As you say. Three at Oulton Park and Two at Donington. AND I believe Donington and Knockhill have or had a licence to run in the reverse direction. As does Mallory, but they don't count as the BTCC don't go there!
So how many we talking now? 17 different from the current circuits used?
Oh don't forget Rockingham! They have...... about 12 different layouts!?
I've lost count now!

Peter, you're right Knockhill did have a licence to run in reverse however I think the licence lapsed due to safety issues.
Anyway going up Duffus just aint the same as going down it. Not that I've been 'up' it!!
Tänak got 20 points closer to Evans, but as the main reason was a bad rally for Evans, I would say that Evans lost 20 points to Tänak, not Tänak gained. The point is, if the other one does not...
