In light of today's announcement, will PDA & DJRTP still be running the blue oval in '16?
Will they switch to new manufacturers, or stick it out until Gen 2 in '17?
If they switch, will a minnow pick up their leftovers, eg LDM running ex PDA FG-X's?
Times, they are a-changing

The Cadillac platform (Alpha) is a development of the Commodore/Camaro platform (Zeta). It is capable of being built in LHD or RHD in both RWD & AWD.

It may be capable of being made in RHD, but I have not seen any plans anywhere for any model based off it to be made in RHD.

Unless he is offered a drive with a competitive factory team (888) I can't see him going anywhere else to be honest.

Can't see him leaving BJR. He's very comfortable there. (Plus the Jones family practically love him like one of their own flesh and blood)

I don't think there will be much change of brands in 2016 with the new rules coming in 2017. Makes no sense to spend 1 year developing a new car then throw it away with another new one the next year.

Mr Mostert Out of Deal At Season 2015's End

...while PRA may be likely to pick him up (presumably dependent on budget/factory support etc)...

...wonder who might have been in the frame to make Mr Mostert an offer?

Surely it would be remiss of Mr Dane's mob not to have made some enquiries about Mr Mostert ? The longer Lowndes remains unsigned the more chance something else is being cooked up behind the scenes.

As a genuine offer, or a disruptor to PRA...

More of the latter, I'd say.

Mr Dane doesn't rate Mr Mostert too highly anyway.

Whichever way you slice it, if he doesn't talk to him he is not doing his job.
