Does that make it easy to show a step up in Year Two to a new car, and associated performance gains by the driver to appease the sponsor?

Go, Harvey Norman, Go kind of doesn't work in 23rd though.

That special less-green livery didn't bode too well for them at Bathurst.

An all-green Bottle-O livery (The lovely 52D, to be precise), ran 2nd in the end one year.

Obviously for those people, but not here.....

From the minute they rolled that car out the day after Frosty won it, I knew he wouldn't keep the number 1 on it for more than year.

A deal like this for an importer obviously is nowhere near as lucrative as scoring a manufacturer deal like we once had, but still, you could see it, especially if Nissan is effectively footing the bill.

It is most interesting how tightly the links from Renault to Nissan extend.

And the odd part is, the Renault F1 team is switching to BP in 2017...

They're certainly doing their best to destabilise Triple Eight, if that is the case.

A cynical one might suggest the chequebook should be used on getting some speed out of the cars before anything else....

You're underselling the size of Mr Penske's chequebook, I'd guess he's spending just as much on all other aspects of the team to get race winning speed.
