With Mr Gow and Mr Crompton as his managers, he could get a drive anywhere.
However, he's happy doing what he's doing. Hell, he hasn't even dabbled in GT3 like many of his peers. |

Seems to have concentrated less on driving and more on taking selfies for Instagram IMO.

Munday clarifies that Will is locked in for another year at Milwaukee
Has someone been inquiring about Will's contract for next year? |

I suppose it helps leverage sponsors going forward.

He'd likely be running for his 3rd or 4th championship by now, if he wasn't so precious, and had endured some hard yards. Now he's just another washed-up coulda/woulda/shoulda sitting out his days in the decaying remnants of HRT. |

DJR were a glorious 13th in the 2012 series, and James Courtney scored a full 25% more points than single car Team DJR for the season. 2013 saw a LEAP up the championship standings to 8th. 2014 DJR was 10th in the standings as a 2 car team, and was beaten in championship points by a single car, Shane Van Gisbergen driving for Tekno. You are deluded if you think Courtney would have won some championships by staying at DJR after the end of 2010. DJR was a shambles, and only survived by being a Prodrive satellite team with driver & engineer supplied. |

I almost think that he drives the car, claim it's a dog, the team do everything to make it right, but then forced re-sign him for another term, keeps doing the same thing and somehow is now an easy pay day?? Has it come down to, he's got his name on the championship and couldn't give a stuff?? If you worked somewhere and your employer didn't come to the party for whatever reason, you wouldn't consider moving on somewhere else?? Driving might be a completely different game to a normal 5 day a week job, but at some point you have to ask yourself is it really worth another year, two or three of the same stuff. |

Given the ongoing issues, sure sounds like Richie Stanaway might be missing the season of endurance, and perhaps that is a good thing.
Not sure I'd want that neck in a bug shunt on the GC, or having to triple-stint at Bathurst (although plenty of time to rest). https://www.supercars.com/news/champ...GxGj0om0ZU9nOE |

Extremely unfortunate not to get into the season decently, would be even worse if it kills his career as a result... |
