I find it funny Paul claims this sort of stuff and says the team are off to Seat Eurocopa!
Correct me if I'm wrong here Paul, but does Supercopa have 6 hours of coverage on a main stream channel? Does Supercopa have anywhere as near supporters and fans of the series as the BTCC does?
Just wondering since I don't live in Spain, but I'm guessing the answers to both those questions will be "no".
Anyway, it's always a shame to see a team go, but with no disrespect intended (I know the situation was out of your hands) I'd almost forgot who these guys were seeing as they hadn't been out since Thruxton!
