....except where he says that it's not unusual and that they're working through it in a transparent and collaborative way. Media have been asking so there was a call and he spoke to them.

Rushbrook shouldn't have to politic this hard for a domestic touring car championship where Ford are the only involved manufacturer. It's silly, right? Ford should be the VIPs with a red carpet, no? They are the only manufacturer in the series after all...

I expect that both brands being represented are being treated with equal respect, otherwise the risk of a lop-sided series is high. Being the only OEM active in any series shouldn't bring preferential treatment, no need for red carpet (or in Ford's case, blue) - just professional recognition and balance needed.
