TOCA Tour Series Director Richard West has quelled rumours that the series would not visit
Mondello Park in four weeks time following his visit to the circuit earlier this week.
"Martin Birrane's team have completed an enormous amount of the outstanding work since I last
visited some seven weeks ago", said West.
"Whilst there are still a specific number of tasks to be completed, the stage is set for a great
weekend of competitive racing and traditional Irish hospitality. I shall be visiting Mondello again
on June 6th when I am confident the finishing touches will have been completed."
Former Touring Car driver Will Hoy also visited Mondello with West. He commented: "It is a very
exciting and technically demanding circuit. Racing there will be challenging."
Mondello Park owner Martin Birrane commented: "Having sought to bring the BTCC to Ireland for
some years now, I am naturally delighted that we have achieved this for year 2001 and beyond."
