Can't help but feel like his hand had been forced on this one, all over contractual BS.
Shame really. Although you can't realy be surprised that PRA could make a blunder as bad as hiring too many drivers for the seats available. |

Or is the "bad blood" over his accelerated race retirement enough to warrant Mr. Bright to move his REC to elsewhere!? Perhaps Bright could be placated with a steer in Mr. French's Falcon hardtop in TCM? At least there Bright would be in contention for the championship, unlike in the Supercars series.

I suspect that the relationship between Mr Bright and the PRA group is quite strained now. The quotes read as though Mr Bright has washed his hands of the majority of it, and left it to legal counsel to sort out. |

The way each of these stories have been written, it’s almost like they have come out today to obligate prodrive to run Mr Bright at Newcastle..

I find it interesting his talk of ensuring the REC is "raced" each round and avoiding a fine. That screams LDM or a new up and coming team to me. PRA certainly wouldnt have an issue you would expect

And I thought last year was bad for dishonoring contracts.

He was still wining races and finishing on the podium up til recently.
Would've been better if it were on his terms. |

Didn't it end badly last time between PRA / FPR the last time that Jason Bright ran the Britek Fujitsu-sponsored cars as a satellite team?
