It's hard to know where everyone is going to fit in, but we should get a good quality grid again. As long as there are plenty of Mustangs and Holdens

This is how I see the 2021 grid shaping out.
Retirement - Rick Kelly Out of seat - Macauley Jones - Fabian Coulthard - Garry Jacobson - Lee Holdsworth Moving to other series - Scott McLaughlin (Indycars) Rookie year - Brodie Kostecki (Erebus) - Will Brown (Erebus) - Thomas Randle (BJR) - Zane Goddard (MSR) - Jake Kostecki (MSR) |

How come Jacobsen is out?
Is that official or an assumption? He's got pace just needs consistency. |

Amazing how things change.
Davey wins Bathurst in 2017, and but for muscle cramps should have won again in 2018. Seemingly on top of the world with a motivated team, a gun engineer, an eager team-mate, and a happy home life. Enough to ink a 10-year deal. So how did it all change so quickly? Sadly he got slapped down for the "say hi to Levi and Chili" remark and again for the PW comment at Bathurst. Maybe the motorsport media became obsessed with the "class clown" tag and it's worn him out. He looks and sounds jaded. Hope you're well Davey - our sport needs you back to your best!! |

Perhaps crazy Davey passed wind during the Erebus team group hug?
Certainly a very different person this year, compared to past seasons. Hopefully Levi and Chilli are doing well! |

The latest Below the Bonnet podcast episode was a fan Q&A. The most asked and engaged-with question on social media (where they took the questions from) was about Dave's future.
The fact that this wasn't acknowledged even slightly suggests he's off somewhere else. If he was staying, he could answer the question and bat away the rumours. |

Sometimes those personal relationships are important, like Story, DJ & Will Davo. I guess it's not always about a driver as a plug-in performance component! |
