Most people are surprised to find, well they don't mention it on TV of course, but the great majority of drivers in the SCS have to buy their seat. Of course we all know that most privateer teams will give a seat to anybody with cash and a licence, but we like to believe that the level 1 teams hire on merit only. Sadly, this is far from true. Without money, all the tremendous talents Cromley and Murph have to offer are just not enough.

Quite frankly this ****s me to tears, I think it;s a team owner/manager's responsibility to arrange the financing for a race team. If they expect the driver to bring money, i think they're just being bloody lazy!
