Compromised should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
There is no chance Fabs (or anyone else) gets the #21 drive over Macca.

If the price was right, Fabs would be an awesome choice, but that REC was bought FOR Macca...

Hollywood was and is the perfect frontman for your brand but he got tossed for wrecking the SLS and throwing away a championship at Homebush didnt he ? Not sure it was to do with his image or social media.

I can see Macca sitting out for a year if there is someone who can buy that seat at BJR. Like Tom Randle with Rusty French money, or someone else who can bring $$$ to that seat. Otherwise it will be Macca in #21.

Bernd Schnieder made him look very ordinary too.

Surely he is MORE than a Co-driver

Still hard to comprehend dropping him for WD.....blows my mind

Not Fabian's fault, that one is squarely on Ryan Story's lap, even if Fabs did what he was told a bit too well.

Did Fabs really do as he was told, or did he backed them right up so it stood out like balls on a bull

The messaging from the team was highly unusual and clearly scripted. Not a mistake.

It seems they let the cat out of the bag with that one. You’re always going to get this sort of team tactics in touring car racing, but most do it discreetly

It was clearly a team order.... the manner the message was delivered to Fabian .... yet the same mystery debris was not communicated to Scott who disappeared at full tilt

It'll be interesting to see if Truck Assist choose to go back to Jack Le Brocq or stick with Holdsworth in 2020. And also to see if/where the Castrol money lands (Tickford with Rick as a co-driver?).

The mail is also getting stronger that Reynolds and the Kelly's will bury the hatchet, which will be a good get for the team, but also a good team mate for Andre to measure himself against.

Not sure Reynolds warrants a drive anymore? He's been going backwards over the last few seasons?

There's decent talent there but little consistency.

I'd sooner give Moffat or Jacobsen a drive.

Anton finished 4 or 5 positions higher this year but the previous few I think you might want to go back on. Davey well placed in the championship ahead in the championship.

I Have no doubt Anton is a great driver but this discussion was more about your random suggestion regarding Moff and Jacobson being more suitable than Davey

Come on enlighten me.
What has Moff and Jacobson achieved in the recent past other than get their backside handed to him by Davey? Oh wait one doesnt have a drive !
