How long is Mr Percat's deal at BJR...
With HMS a shadow of its former self, assistance to the pilot is said to perhaps not be continuing past the end of this season

Kelly's/Nissan should make a play for JC. They really need a driver with a half reasonable profile for sponsors.

It's the most obvious outcome, although probably not the most logical.

I had wondered if the team's connection with Mr Hazelwood was stronger than it now seems. Apparently not.

I'd imagine most of them will be fairly sought after within the championship. They've been performing at a very high level and would be an asset to any team that takes them.

Yeah I understand why you'd go with Macca, but I was hoping they'd grab Todd instead. Usually BJR miss out on these younger, "next big thing" drivers. From Todds point of view you could do a lot worse than to start your main game career in a Jones car.

Ah well, an opportunity missed for both

Because its not a TV company. Its a larger company that owns media

With rumours of MSR stepping up, Todd may not be available to drive for BJR?

Unless a REC magically appears, that won't happen either.

If the LDM partial buy-out comes to fruition, I doubt those RECs will be up for grabs.

They'd want to have a strong business case and a decent amount of cash behind them, if they wish to unlock one of the dormant ones in Mr Warburton's bottom drawer...

Interesting in AA today that prodrive apparently have a plan to bring Mr Stanaway into their 4 car operation. The story suggests that Mr Dumbrell may relocate his REC to prodrive for Mr Stanaway to run under as #56.

While according to the article, Mr Bright seems set bring his current chassis & sponsor & REC to Phil Munday Racing to prepare his Jobri/Britek entry alongside Mr Rullo.

There was some chat at Sandown, separate from this article, that Mr de Pasquale may actually take the seat at PMR alongside Mr Bright, bringing along Mr Mules' chassis to form the 2 car Ford team...
