BTCC: Tony Gilham will drive Rotek Racing Audi S3 at Brands Hatch


By Tarek Ramchani

There will be a slight change for the Rotek Rotek Racing effort in the British Touring Car Championship season finale at Brands Hatch.

Team owner and driver Robb Holland won't enter BTCC final meeting of the 2014 season, he will be replaced by Tony Gilham behind the wheels of the #67 Audi S3 Sedan

Tony Gilham a familiar face in BTCC paddock, he will make a return to the premier Biritsh auto racing competition and discover the Audi NGTC racer.


Rob Holland and Rotek Racing are planning to expand their BTCC Audi effort next season aiming to field a pair of S3 Sedans, all depending on TOCA available slots.

We would love to run two cars if possible next season but of course that depends on there being a licence available,” said Holland. “We’ve already got six or seven drivers interested and Tony is one of them. He brought me into the BTCC and we’ve always had a good relationship. Maybe I owed him one – he’s a good guy, a good peddler and it was a perfect opportunity for all parties.” (Quotes from BTCC.net)
