The last question before Friday
Has BJR retained Ozemail, or not?
I have heard alot of theories from many a people, but wheres the proof? |

The proof being that they were testing the cars in Ozemail colours only hours before they had to line up at Albert Park, proof enough for me!

I thought there was talk of Ozemail scaleing back sponsorship, this would explain the dropping of naming rights and then Harvey Norman stepping in to top the overall $$'s up?

well the BJR truck left Albury the other day still with Ozemail colours on it , but that doesnt really mean alot cause it costs a fair bit of cash to repaint the truck.

Yes I think we should just all wait until BJR announce what they are doing, they have had a hard enough time because of rumours so far this season......

I've got to say, BJR is giving me the s#*&!!!! I’ve lost all respect for them.... One day before they start racing for 2004 & we have heard nothing!!!
All we get, is one of there drivers having a "go" at forums for starting rumours... What the f&^# do you want as to do, if you don't tell us anything???????? Get your act together BJR!! |

Hypothetically, if I was a major ISP company, I am not sure if I would want to be sponsoring a race team when the series broadcaster is well and truly in bed with a rival broadband ISP company................hypothetically of course.......

00 XR8, thats the reason you WOULD want to sponsor a car in the series. Ambush Marketing 101.

They circulated a press release yesterday filled with the word "Ozemail". Read into that what you like...
I remember late last year people were swept into a tizz saying that shell had packs its bags when the team was refered to as "DJR" in a press release. Maybe I should issue a press release saying that the world's finishing... |

The cars are still branded Ozemail at the track (I didnt take a pic... they put them away after the practice session to quickly) and are now both green and white.
Interesting to see is the support for this team by Mobil... |

Each second that goes past is a second closer to your ultimate demise. Is that worth a press release?
