Who'd have thought the person of French origin would then subsequently move camps?
Imagine the uproar if said Frenchman's team decided to start making ZB parts and undercutting the current supplier?

It would infringe on the IP, which Triple Eight also own.

Shirley he'd have at least had a tentative enduro seat with the team.

Mr Barbera nor Mr Muscat have neither set the world on fire in these cars.

Did notice several times they said "last full-time drive with GRM", so sounds like there might be an offer of enduro drive (should he not land a better offer).

Is he the only one in the current field to have raced for 4 makes? Holden, Nissan, Volvo and Ford?

Potentially the last year of the falcon in the main game next year

The two 2013-DJR build cars would not necessarily be the shiny shillings the latest cars seem to be. Previously sold DJR cars may not have been the equal of then-current spec either..

Not sure why you'd bother, if aftersales support is not forthcoming.

Maybe it's a nice place for an elder of the series to park his bum for 12 months while his much fancied younger team mate gets himself a red hot Super 2 car and a nice endurance ride. Allegedly.

Probably not the only option Brighty has and as the article says he still has a PRA contract situation to sort out.

Could be a nice payday to take a contract settlement offer from PRA to compensate for losing the main game drive, and for not using the Britek REC next season, on top of a sellers market for unloading the longheld REC...

The question then becomes... what’s next...

Mega is a PRA-sourced & managed sponsor. Whatever happens with them is a PRA issue, and should not impact the cost of unwinding existing contractual obligations with REC holders & driving contracts.

So Mega will appear on the Stanaway racer?

Or Mega have done an ICS and will not be invited back?
