So will Supercars try for liquidated damages or is there a force majeur clause?

There are some saying this opens an opportunity for Courtney and Boost. Surely given Addertons public disdain for Tickford on behalf of Stanaway, that'd be unlikely?

And by the end of next week, some are saying a bloke like Adderton might have 4 RECs to choose from if he wants to go racing.

From the DSO




OK, so no more stuffing around.
Here is what I know, some of it will be proven right, some maybe not.

1) Peter Adderton has bought the 23 Red REC, and the 2 Mustang's owned by Phil Munday.

2) James Courtney will be driving a Mustang, with Boost sponsorship for the remainder of the 2020 season. The car will be run on a similar prep deal out of Tickford.

3) Almost definitely four, but as many as seven cars won’t make it back when the Supercars season re-commences.

Macca Jones & Jack Smith (Smith to S5000), both Team Sydney cars, gone according to my spies.

Also hearing that possibly both Charlie Forklift (this one I doubt) and the Kelly’s are still deciding. (all pending sponsors commitments)

4) For the remainder of 2020, Supercars are contracted to run a minimum 24 car grid, for Foxtel, so the shortfall will be made up by Super 2 teams. (coz they’re all so cashed up, hey ?
)

5) Sprint races will be run on a new format, with no pitstops… (team number restrictions also will dictate this)

6) Scotty Mac was US bound, but now it seems Penske won't be running a 4th Indycar in 2021.

7) Penske were planning on closing the doors at DJRTP at the end of the year. (and probably still will ) **

8) Anton DePasquale had signed a deal with DJRTP to replace Scotty Mac (before they decided to leave the Dr, high and dry) **

9) Courtney had an in-principal agreement to run a third Erebus car, as a Wildcard, for as many races as possible, with Boost sponsorship (see point 2)

10) Anton might end up staying in a third Erebus car next year, as Dave & IFWB are both locked. **

11) Ross Palmer recently told a friend of mine that Supercars is almost $70M in debt (currently)
If anyone knows about going tits up, it's Ross.

12) I can't actually believe that both Anton and Scotty are potentially without a drive in 2021. **

13) I personally don't think Supercars will survive the current crisis, maybe not even the year.

They have crafted themselves as an event promoter and are now contractually obligated to run events for TV, but will lose vast amounts of money running them in front of no paying customers.

** see point 13…

Well, almost time for me to close the page and retire.
I think I'll have ruffled some feathers with this post.

It's still pretty bad even if they only get half the things right... $70m in debt? Ouch.

Sad to see Will without out a drive, and likewise Phil Munday seemed to be a nice bloke, that ran a good operation.

Hopefully Scottie can still get to drive in the USA.

Sign of the times, it is a world of hurt out in the real word- it will get ugly before it gets better.

Stay safe guys and girls.

Tim Blanchard jumped on the DSO post and said that Cooldrive and Macca are locked in for 2020


So yes. Hit and miss.

DSO might be hit and miss, but the 23Red situation is a sign things are happening behind the scenes for the worse.

Didn’t the majority owners of the V8Supercars series essentially prop the show up from 1997-2011? If it wasn’t for them there’d have been no grid!

With 23Red and Davison gone, is there a place for Boost-Courtney combination in the fourth Tickford Mustang? I'd say it's very likely now.
Shame to see Davison lose his seat, he doesn't deserve that.

Looks like that’s the case.
