Fellow BTCC victors Dan Lloyd and Stephen Jelley have already revealed plans to make Carrera Cup comebacks this season and they will now be joined by Gamble, who endured a frustrating tin-top campaign in a Speedworks Motorsport Toyota last year.
Gamble only managed a best result of eighth, having starred in his rookie BTCC season in a Ciceley Motorsport BMW the previous year, when he scored a podium at his debut weekend.
Gamble is now returning to more familiar rear-wheel-drive machinery, having finished third in the Carrera Cup points back in 2019, and described his Porsche switch as a “reset”.
“Last year, I didn’t have the best year – I had a lot of breakdowns and was trying to get to grips with front-wheel drive,” he told Autosport. “It was hard to get any momentum going.
“I really wanted to get back into rear-wheel drive and this fitted well.
“I’m looking forward to the challenge. The Porsches are so close and the calendar is great – it’s a fantastic championship and I had two really good years in it.”
