The team has won the Drivers', Teams' and Manufacturers' championship in each of the last four years, but it will be a huge challenge to replicate that success this year.

Having enjoyed so much success with the Vauxhall Astra Coupé model, (indeed, with 62 wins from 96 starts, it is the most successful car in the history of the BTCC), Vauxhall starts from scratch this year, with the introduction of the new Astra Sport Hatch model.

2003 champion Yvan Muller remains for his eighth season in the BTCC, but he is joined by two new teammates in the form of Irish duo, Colin Turkington and Gavin Smith.
