HRT loses longtime car builder?

Have been told that HRT long time car builder has resigned. Can anyone confirm or deny this rumour. If it's true is this the start of the end?

Haven't anything like that. Would presume that if the person has resigned they would be on the move to another (presumably Holden) team.

Or would he be one of the ones that have a contract that says he can not work for another team?

Those contracts are virtually unenforceable unless the team continues to pay the team member, who is effectively on gardening leave....

Unless the person ( if its happened at all and I doubt it this close to Bathurst), has not exactly left on their own accord.

Rick Wyatt I'm told is his name. Been with HRT for Donkeys years. No one wants to confirm it so I suppose this post may gain the truth from somewhere.

Rick Wyatt is/was a long time engineer at TWRA/HMS, controlling new car builds within the team.

This role entails/entailed taking the completed shells from Dencar and fitting them with fuel cells, oil systems, engines, transmissions etc etc

A critical person for sure but not quite convinced it will weaken HRT significantly or strengthen another team substantially. We shall see

You could be right GTR. I just wonder that with the rumoured unhappiness of some team members since the new boss took over, is this the start of a migration of team members?
