The new Hyundai i30 Fastback N Performance that will be entered in the British Touring Car championship this season has appeared in public for the first time in testing at Snetterton.

EXCLER8 Motorsport will enter two of the new cars in the series this season for Chris Smiley and Senna Proctor having elected to introduce the Hyundai as a replacement for the two MG6 GTs it campaigned during its maiden year in the series in 2019.

The run out at Snetterton provided the team with the chance to complete a shakedown of the two cars ahead of the BTCC season launch, which is scheduled to take place at Silverstone on Tuesday.
