“This programme by Ciceley Racing is a perfect demonstration of the strength and adaptability of our ‘NGTC’ technical regulations – the team are able to change from racing a Toyota and onto developing and racing a Mercedes-Benz, whilst utilising the vast majority of the NGTC components they already possess. It will be great to see a Mercedes-Benz on the grid, to add to the already huge roll-call of other great brands competing in the BTCC,” said series director Alan Gow.公仔箱論壇- h9 k2 C( s3 w$ [0 X% d, z- {' c
