The whole thing is quite odd, given that Mr Rullo was allegedly paid up for the season.

I'd have thought sticking someone in the other car who has the wherewithal, would be a better idea, as opposed to Mr Munday footing the bill for the likes of Taz and Alex Davison.

Poor Jack, can't catch a break. Pity he hasn't finished restoring the 93 or 03 car, probably have more chance of being further up the grid.

Last time he subbed in the LDM car, it was excluded from the meeting. He had the thing running reasonably well at various points of the weekend. All for nothing.
