Following today’s (18 August) statement from Cataclean, TOCA confirms the team will continue competing in the 2026 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship under a new name and management structure, in order that it can move positively forward.
The matters concerned are internal to the organisation and relate solely to its directors, shareholders and relevant parties. TOCA is not privy to those matters.
However, TOCA has been provided with assurances of the team’s participation in the BTCC going forward. Those assurances reflect Cataclean’s continuing commitment and confidence in both the team and the Championship.
We understand that the programme will operate through a new entity, without the further involvement of Jason Plato in its management or ownership.
In the interim, the team will be entered as CPRL.
Jason is unquestionably one of the BTCC’s greatest stars, and his exceptional record speaks for itself. He has long been – and will remain – a valued part of the BTCC family. Although his involvement with this particular venture appears to have reached its conclusion, we look forward to seeing Jason in the BTCC paddock in the future.
