2010 British Touring Car Championship

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jason Plato won the championship with 260 points
Matt Neal (pictured in 2012) finished second, 31 points behind Plato
Gordon Shedden (pictured in 2007) finished the season in third place, and was in mathematical contention to win until the final round

The 2010 Dunlop[1] MSA British Touring Car Championship season was the 53rd British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) season. It began at Thruxton Circuit on 4 April and finished after 30 races over ten events at Brands Hatch on 10 October.

RML Chevrolet driver Jason Plato claimed the championship with a win in the penultimate race of the season leading home season long rival, Honda Racing Team's Matt Neal. On his way to his second BTCC crown, Plato claimed seven victories through the course of the season (equalling Andy Rouse's all-time record of 60) compared to Neal's five wins. The final victory margin was 31 points. Neal's teammate Gordon Shedden also had a shot at the title heading into the final round but a broken driveshaft immediately prior to the start of Race 2 at Brands Hatch left him too far adrift and he finished the title 42 points behind Plato.

Despite finishing fourth in the outright points chase Arena Motorsport Ford driver Tom Onslow-Cole lost the Independents' Trophy to team mate Tom Chilton. Chilton ended up eight points clear of Onslow-Cole with Motorbase Performance BMW driver Steven Kane finishing just two points behind Chilton.

The combined performances of Neal and Shedden won for the Honda Racing Team the Teams' title. It was the third title for Team Dynamics and the first time they had won the manufacturers crown for long-time partners Honda. The combined performances of Chilton and Onslow-Cole allowed Arena Motorsport to claim the Independent Teams' trophy, breaking a three-year stranglehold on that trophy by West Surrey Racing.

Changes for 2010

[edit]

The loss of RAC sponsorship after four seasons meant WSR were forced to release both reigning Champion Colin Turkington and Stephen Jelley. Rob Collard returned to the team he'd previously driven for in 2005 and 2006 while Andy Neate embarked on his first full season after a couple of one-off appearances and having missed on out on a WSR seat in 2008. Motorbase Performance continued to compete as Airwaves BMW with Mat Jackson replacing Collard and Steven Kane returning in place of Jonathan Adam. A third entry for former ASCAR Champion Ben Collins appeared at the final meeting of the season on the Brands Hatch Indy Circuit. Forster Motorsport also entered a pair of BMWs for Martin Depper and Arthur Forster.

After their impressive performance with Independently-run Lacettis in 2009, the RML-run Racing Silverline team received works support from Chevrolet and upgraded to a pair of Cruzes for Jason Plato and Clio Cup graduate Alex MacDowall.

With Vauxhall pulling out at the end of 2009, Triple 8 became an Independent team and entered a pair of Vectras with Fabrizio Giovanardi set to continue as lead driver and reigning Clio Cup Champion Phil Glew as his team-mate. However, the team's new sponsor Uniq pulled out after the season-opener at Thruxton, forcing them to release both drivers. For the remainder of the season, the team ran James Nash in one car with the second car making three further appearances, each time in the hands of a newcomer (Daniel Lloyd at Croft, Jeff Smith at Knockhill and Sam Tordoff at Brands Hatch Indy). Andrew Jordan returned to his father Mike's team, now competing as Pirtek Racing and David Pinkney returned with his own team, both of whom also driving Vectras but running the new NGTC engines. Boulevard Team Racing continued to run Martin Johnson in what was to be the Vauxhall Astra Coupe's BTCC swansong.

Team Dynamics received support from Honda, becoming the first Honda works team since 2004. Matt Neal and Gordon Shedden returned to the team while their old Integras were still represented by Tech-Speed. Paul O'Neill was now partnered by John George in place of Martyn Bell with a third Integra entered by Lea Wood from the Brands Hatch GP meeting onwards (although the team sat out Knockhill as did Forster Motorsport). Former Independent's and Production Class Champions Barwell Motorsport and James Kaye returned with a 4th Integra for the final two meetings. TH Motorsport ran Matt Hamilton in a Civic Type-R for the first four meetings before pulling out.

Team Aon continued to run their Ford Focuses with Tom Onslow-Cole now partnering Tom Chilton full-time. The Focuses were converted to run on Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) before the season started.

Tom Boardman and his family-run team returned under the Special Tuning UK banner, driving a SEAT Leon. The team ran Phil Glew in a second Leon with an NGTC engine at Silverstone with Boardman running the NGTC engine at Knockhill.

For the first time since 1989, a Volkswagen was entered in the BTCC with AMD Racing running Shaun Hollamby in a Super 2000 Golf.
