The team has also not confirmed if they will be runing a 3rd driver yet, and will still not comment on the subject as to if, or who will be racing along side 2 Scottish drivers.
More News to come....

Having finished Season 2 of the Forza 2 British GT in style the team have become very determined to make sure that they can run at the top end of the championship throughout the whole of season 3. For this the drivers have went back to the garage and are testing a wide range of cars to find the right one for the upcoming season.

M&M Racing and Vodafone have decided to part ways for season 3 of the BGT. The decision was made when Vodafone decide to become the main sponsor of another team along with THR and M&M Racing for season 3. Another sponsor has showed great interest throughout the end of last season and made several offers to become a smaller sponsor with the team. When Vodafone announced that they would be funding another team the other sponsor jumped at the opportunity to offer M&M Racing a full main sponsorship for the upcoming season. They offered a fantastic deal to sponsor a team in this category of motosport.

M&M Racing have partnered up with Rizla, who are the main sponsors of Suzuki in the Moto GP and the British Superbikes. This is a fantastic opportunity that the team could not pass up. Rizla are able to provide us the funds that are required to turn the team into a championship contender.

With car selection not open yet for the upcoming season M&M Racing have designed a prototype Rizla car based upon last seasons entry. Once the cars are confirmed for next season a full team photoshoot will be released.

For now here is our prototype design.



“After winning at Silverstone I am hoping to carry this success over into next season. Teaming up with Rizla gives us the opportunity to become a very unique team. With Vodafone branching out into too many teams next season it was looking all to common in the pitlane. But it has to be said, the Rizla Grid Girls are a hell of a lot nicer than the ones that Vodafone provided.” - Ian Marr

“Having Rizla sign up as our main sponsor has made us stand out from the rest of the teams on the grid. With such huge success on two wheels we can't let them down on four.” - Richard Millard

And who said we aint gona have fun this season

Intverveiw with Ian, 12/12/2008 at the M&M Racing Race base at Knockhill just 30 mins drive from Edinburgh Scotland.

We catch up with Ian for the first time this season, and what a season it has been so far! After he burst onto the season just after the start of season, he worked harder and harder at every round to get the car faster and more refined and to his success he WON the last race of the season which pushed him up to 5th in the points, a great start for a new comer to the championship and hoping to carry his success over to season 3.



Hello Ian, thanks for having up us here and fitting the interview into your busy afternoon,
" No proplem, always gt time for a chat"

SO how does it feel to still be leading to the points after rounds 4 and 5?
"oh its great, i think , i mean there still dropped rounds to come into affect but i am still leading the points but 6 hole points, but we will see at the end of the season, i mean the racing is alot closer this year and there are more faster drivers out there runing every meeting, the S5s' and going realy well, they are just quick at every track, i got 5th last year and i would love to end up there again this year or higher"

SO how is the car running this year,
"it's alot faster, we are getting alot more support with parts extra and we have actual just trying the car out this afternoon with some brand new goodies from the factory"

What new goodies?
"ah now that would be telling"

ALl hust hust then, so what your thoughts on your new driver NickFTM3?
"that great news, Richy has been working hard to sign a new driver, but we only want the best from M&M Racing, we are hope to have a good stab at the Drivers and Teams Cup this year and i think Nick will be great asset, we are just waiting on his brand new car to be ordered and come throught in full race paint"

So what the plans for the next few rounds?
"well i am hoping to get as many points as i can,i NEED to keep scoring good points if i want to finish in the top 6 again this year, we have a busy testing plan for the few weeks over new year, i think there will be a few supprises to come from this team yet"

Thats great Ian thanks for you time, i will let you get back out on track, i am sure we will hear from you again soon.
" yes thanks, have tryed to keep a low profile but we will see how the rest of the season goes, cant wait to get testing with Richy and Nick"
