CONGRATULATIONS ON THE NEW LIVERY, CHRISTIAN. IT LOOKS AMAZING AND WE’RE VERY HUMBLED TO SEE MOTUL’S BRAND FEATURING SO PROMINENTLY ON THE CARS.
We’re delighted to show off the Corolla’s ‘new clothes’ for 2021! Since first gaining official BTCC ‘Manufacturer’ status two years ago, we’ve worked hard to foster ever-closer relations with Toyota Gazoo Racing and to now see not just one but two Speedworks-built touring cars in the brand’s signature red, black and white colour scheme is a very special moment indeed. I must also pay tribute to Motul and [official UK importer and distributor] Witham Motorsport for their ongoing support in stepping up to the role of “Primary Partner” this season.
YOU’RE CURRENTLY TESTING AHEAD OF THE BTCC SEASON START. WHAT ARE YOUR EXPECTATIONS FOR THE SEASON AHEAD?
I have no doubt that the cars will look even better at speed, and we are all excited to go testing this week to try out everything we’ve been working on back at base over the winter months. We are quietly confident of taking another step forward with the Corolla this year, and once the action gets underway, we look forward to seeing the Toyota Gazoo Racing colours where they belong – right at the front of the pack.
