After missing out on the first round of the season due to engine problems the Forster Motorsport team have worked around the clock to get the cars ready for the second round of the season at Rockingham and are all set to make their debut in the BTCC but they might have to do it without one of their drivers.

Martin Depper has fallen foul of the current volcano debacle in Finland which has seen all flights come to a standstill and leaves Martin and his family stranded in America with no clear indication into a timescale of when the family can arrive back into the country.

Flights have today resumed but it’s unsure whether Martin would be back in time for the race this weekend.

More to follow.
