Team Dynamics 2019 Season Guide

The Drivers
conversation, not least with rival, Jason
Plato.
He attacks every season with the same
mindset. To win the title. There is no
doubt that there is a fourth title in there
somewhere and God willing and with a
good tail wind, he has every chance of
making it happen. He is not, by any
means, past his prime, in fact, I believe his
finest moment is still yet to come.
Will he do it this year? who knows, but I
think he has a good chance to challenge
after having a year to iron out the kinks of
the new style Honda Civic Type R.
I do sometimes think back to last season
with a whole bag of ‘what if’s’, After all, at
the mid season point in 2018, he was in
3rd place.

It was always going to be a big ask to put
a serious challenge in during the car’s
debut season but that is not the case for
2019. Both drivers have established
themselves, the car has shown its
potential, especially on those tracks with
the longer straights. Its low drag and slick
profile is a definite advantage, however, I
would be interested to see how it does this
year on those circuits that favour the rear
wheel drives such as the BMW’s and
Suburu’s. As far as the circuits go, we will
be visiting Thruxton twice which was very
strong for the team last season but we also
lose Rockingham which wasn’t.
All I can say is “Let the
tyres see the tracks”
