But maybe plus one with Racer reporting Mazda is considering customer DPis. It makes sense now after a couple statements from Doonan and others about wanting to be reliable enough to sell them and be successful. It seems they've made a winning car so maybe sales next, stranger things have happened but have to wonder what teams would or could run them.

Very impressive that Mazda has shown the patience that they have. Both with finally getting a team/car combination that can win. Also with selling the cars with privateers. Generate a lot of goodwill I think by waiting to sell until you get to a point that you know you can give the customer a quality product rather than rush for the $$. We see that too much in other aspects of society today. Especially with movie franchises which are horrible....Star Wars Disney anybody!
