They won't be doubling up, if it ever happens.

If there is ever such a seismic shift in local racing that isn't GT racing I suspect the British style might be more easy to fund.

I can't wait for the 2030 V8Supercar title when the Commodore VFII wins its 15th title straight under Gen2 rules.

Let the back pedalling commence!!!
Possibility of delaying Gen2 a year, maybe two. Supercars Gen2 test mule already delayed. Missed it's two scheduled race meets. What is going on at Supercars HQ????? |

I'd say it's just code for "no new manufacturers are interested yet"

If Volvo and Nissan stick around, maybe they'll change engines, possibly bodywork. I can't see Ford or Holden doing anything at least for another couple of years.

I wonder if the Foxtel contract has stipulations on grid sizes/diversity?

Perhaps we can just put it down to a significant oversight?

Considering they took the 'V8' out of 'V8Supercars' in anticipation of new powerplants and manufacturers, its definitely significantly something...

'All these negative comments' aren't just from one article, they are the culmination of a bunch of recent articles where they have cited Ford (not interested), Nissan and Volvo (complete uncertainty about the future in the category) and V8 Supercars (or is that just Supercars these days?) stating that their Gen 2 project is at the very least delayed and already talking about Gen 3.
It was a big enough deal to tell the world via press release about their logo. It was a big enough deal to drop the 'V8' from it in preparation for Gen 2 and the anticipated new and old marques that would embrace it in 2017 (currently sitting at zero and holding steady). |
