SVG with a get out clause in the new contract, tells me that he is not sticking around.

Maybe SVG is not a fan of the new car, sick of the supercar politics, needs a new challenge or chasing some big dollars.

The next big hope in supercars, that be Ms Gracie!
Just imagine the merch sales.

Heaps of people have had these contracts, it's a pretty common thing.

Based on the last couple of years, Waters is top quality if the equipment is upto it.

Anton has gone awol when he looked set to become the no.1 Ford guy.

Brown and Brodie had shown serious promise at times but.this year really look like taking the fight to 888!

Feeney looks the real deal?

I think the remarkable thing is how he's kinda flying under the radar.

He's not leading the field really but he has really not missed a beat, hasn't had major accidents or gotten in anybody's way, and has been exceptionally consistent.

The marks of a future champion?

Consistency is something Mostert always seems to lack. One weekend he's flyimg but the next he's rooted down in the pack with no pace. It's been like that whether he's in a Mustang, Commodore or Falcon!

Could be.

There's no doubting he's in a very good car, better than some multiple championship winning drivers.

But it comes with a lot of pressure, and you have to be there and drive it too.

I just think his composure and maturity is amazing.

The guy was born in 2002. I have shoes older than that.

Agree with the comments about Broc Feeney, just keeping a low profile.

Likewise with WAU and Chas, it is just a lack of consistency-should be up front at every round.

The biggest disappointment of the recent years for me is Anton De Pasquale. Back in the Erebus days he seemed like he could really become a top performer in a top team and when he joined DJR it was all downhill from there. Perhaps becoming McLaughlin's successor turned to be too big of a challenge for him or maybe he was never poised for great things. Anyway, kind of rated him a lot higher. Yes, DJR seems to be going back to their mid-pack place that they'd been at for years before Penske came, but Anton's been regularly beaten by Will Davison recently. Quite a shame.

As for Feeney, I don't know, he's been somewhat invisible but on the other hand already won twice this year and is very young so can only get better. Given he's at Triple 8, which will probably be winning over the next decade or so, he'll probably be a major title candidate. I'm tipping Kostecki joining him at 888 in not too distant a future - wonder who can win the title (first) - Kostecki or Feeney. Somehow Kostecki seems better than Feeney atm but you never know.
