NZL - Why isn't Johnny Reid driving?

Matt Halliday has done the last two rounds, the reason given in Dubai was that they wanted the consistency of feedback from one driver on a setup they were trying. However going by comments on NZ web sites it seems Halliday is driving in Durban as well. Anyone know why Reid isn't?

Yes.... I am reliably told that it is because Halliday has buckets of money to spend and there may be a difference of opinion between drivers.

The team prefer Reid though, I am reliably told by someone involved mechanically

Well here's hoping we said Reid again soon. He seems like a very nice bloke. At Sepang I saw him stop to voluntarily take a photo of a couple of fans together (without being asked), no prima donna about him whatsoever!

You couldn't meet a nicer guy in motorsport, but he is competitive. He comes from a wealthy family but they keep his feet on the ground.
