Hyla Breese - Best finish 21st. Possibly the unluckiest driver ever in the BTCC. Spent the second half of 2002 in a Team B&Q Accord in the Production Class, but only managed to start three races. Had so many engine changes, he became the only driver in BTCC history to score minus points...
Until Derek Palmer Jr in 2015 and Mark Howard in 2016.

Yeah, it was so rejectful for Lewis Hamilton in 2008 and Jenson Button in 2009!




What am I supposed to be thinking?
I should have been more clear. I was referring to the fact that the numbers on the rear window are all cockeyed. They got it right on the other side.

Oh, I did notice that. I just assumed it was stylised or something. But if the number is straight on the other side, than that is a very strange thing indeed!
Seems to have brought him good luck though, scored his first points in a wet Race 2 at Donington Park, finished P7.

Sam Osborne is probably the luckiest bastard in recent BTCC History, P4 on the road, promoted to his first podium after newcomer Ronan Pearson was disqualified.

Wish someone would do an article commemorating Team HARD now that Tony Gilham's outfit has folded and sold off some of their Cupras.

Yes, that's a thought, I have been entertaining the idea.

Can't do that just yet, the team has survived but downsized to just a single entry for the time being.
