As part of a wider unveiling of its programme, Dick Bennetts, whose team ran Colin Turkington to the drivers' title last year, will confirm WSR's second driver after the announcement of Sam Tordoff last December.
Bennetts, who will be present on the main stage at 1130am on Thursday, said the signing was "a big coup for the BTCC".
