WSR revealed their liveries for their three Team BMW 330i M Sport efforts ahead of the 2021 British Touring Car Championship season starting in May.

The team will sport a revised colour scheme for the 2021 season with four-time champion Colin Turkington joined by race-winners Tom Oliphant and Stephen Jelley this season.

It will bear the iconic BMW M Stripes in Bavarian Blue with violet and red on their usual striking matte-black base as they look to build on claiming Teams’ success and equalling the record of five straight constructors’ crowns.

The new trio all slightly different with their respective sponsors adorning the 3 Series will take to the track for the first time on 23 March for pre-season testing at Brands Hatch.

It’s been an intensive winter for WSR and Team BMW, but despite the 2020 season concluding a month later than we’re used to, we’ve still been able to work through a comprehensive development programme for the BMW 330i M Sport,” said Team Principal, Dick Bennetts.

We began our 2021 test programme at Silverstone last week and were pleased to see that most of the upgrades we’ve added to the car have had the desired effect. The new livery, created by Nick Moss Designs, looks fantastic and I can’t wait to see all three cars in formation when we continue our pre-season testing at Brands Hatch next week.”
