Tom Walkinshaw plans a return

Tom Walkinshaw is planning to return to motor racing with a new company called the Tom Walkinshaw Group Ltd. The company is registered in Hertford in England. Walkinshaw intends to announce two new projects shortly: one in racing and one in the automotive sector. Walkinshaw has keen keeping a low profile in recent years since the collapse of his TWR Group and the Arrows F1 team, although he has been working with Holden in Australian racing.

The original Tom Walkinshaw Racing company was dissolved in 2003 but it is worth noting that a new Tom Walkinshaw Racing company, registered in Hounslow, was registered in 2004.

It is expected that the new company will be involved in touring car racing.
