billy bigtime has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Has HRT improved under TW?

Nah, replacing one team owner with another, doesn't help.

Reliability no, performance yes.

Don't know if that's more to do with him or change in drivers/engineers

Two meetings and and your calling for the coaches head. Mate, are you a Richmond supporter?

I think the decision to get Will davison will prove to be a masterstroke ... who did Ford keep to let him go? none other that Whelan Courtney ... what a joke!

Yep, they stole him from Holden however many years ago now, i bet they wish they could somehow sneak back in and put him back without anyone noticing.

He may be good one day though if he stops crashing

Fair topic but a poor post.
Has HRT improved under walkinshaw no not really the more things change the more they remain the same.

he's not a slow learner...he's just slow and never learns...but he has crashed as many cars as Whelan though, so he's good at something

I see HRT like an old hooker....new pimp, new knickers - same old dimly lit street corner.

Let's see... at least one of the cars still keeps on breaking down every meeting, nothing has changed there - seems power steering failures are the go at the moment, especially on car 2. Tander must have inherited the luck of the past 5 years of the previous owner of car 2

So we can still expect poor reliability, and we can still expect poor pitstop performance. Seems TW is doing wonders!! Unfortunately for Holden, all the top Holdens are walkinshaw cars, which all go about as consistently well as the AU did!
