Hi Woolley,
You may be right long term, but in the mean time Brendon has a very well paying contract with Mercedes as their main Simulator pilot, and from what his mentor, PJ, tells me is extremely well thought of in that roll. I do know for a fact that he has to get Mercedes position to do any racing on the side because we tried to get him into an V8 Supertourer as an endurance driver last year, however he was unable to get the necessary release so it didnt happen.
Cheers,
Mark Petch.
