In seriousness I wonder now if this has a positive impact on any others re-signing. It could be argued that Volvo may have been seen as the least likely to stay.

Phelps article in Wednesday morning Telegraph would have been written on Tuesday afternoon at latest.

So why did he not mention it on Tuesday night's "Inside Supercars"?

Given that both were done on Tuesday, and both had Foges on it this week.....

But no, the TV show is not live, it's taped earlier in the afternoon. The radio show is done on Tuesday night (but i don't think aired until Wednesday?? At least thats when the podcast is out)

Why is it being written Volvo is "poised to confirm" rather than "Garry Rogers has confirmed" renewing for 3 years?

Dunno - maybe the discussion with Warburton was recorded prior to Garry Rogers telling the Telegraph that the deal was signed?

Just watched the first STCC race of the weekend congrats on McLaughlin grabbing second and Dahlgren winning. Dahlgren faster then McLaughlin-who wouldve thunk it? Interesting to see how McLaughlin spoke about his troubles launching the car off the line which dropped him back a few positions before the first corner.

The championship seems like a Volvo benefit these days with ten cars and three of them being Volvos and in another league compared to the rest of the field. They even have someone called Dick Jonnson on the team (no joke). The track which is a converted airfield isn't without its charms though but with only ten cars the action was pretty sparse.

Second race is at 1.45am I believe (if Ive got my time zones right)

Watched both STCC races, SM was on a great run in race 2 and in my opinion was on his way to the win if he didn't get taken out at the end of the runway.

I was also surprised that there is a Swedish Dick Jonsson!!

I'm happy to see Volvo continue as it sure beats having more Holdens and Fords on the grid.
