Team Dynamics unveil 2017 colours and confirm drivers

Team Dynamics have unveiled their new colours for the 2017 British Touring Car Championship at the Autosport International Show, as well as confirmed that drivers Matt Neal and Gordon Shedden will continue to race together for a tenth season.

“I think our new livery looks really striking and aggressive – we’re going for a ‘stealth-like’ approach this year!” said Neal. ”As we proved in 2016, the Civic Type R is a superb all-rounder, and we are optimistic of being on the pace at every circuit again – plus, consistency has always been one of my strong suits.”

Shedden, who secured his second consecutive BTCC title for the team in 2016, will start his eleventh full season for the team in 2017.

”As far as I’m concerned, going into a new season as the defending champion is the best position to be in and I’m hopeful that we will be there or thereabouts from the outset – even if we fully expect the competition to be tougher than ever this year,” said Shedden.

Team-mate Neal finished sixth in the 2016 drivers’ championship with two victories and is looking to improve in 2017 despite expecting a tougher challenge.

“I’m not underestimating any of our opposition, and I’m under no illusions about the challenge we are facing. It’s going to be another extremely tough fight and I’m not discounting anybody from the equation. I’m always wary of being over-confident because confidence breeds complacency, but I’m happy with our preparations so far and I think we’re in a good place,” said Neal.
