A Neal/Plato combo would tick that box. If it were to be sold as the final season for both… Works for Neal/Dynamics to keep the team on the grid and as a last hurrah for Matt.
Gets Plato around the awkwardness potentially of going back on 2022 being his final season. Who would deny the lure of a big finale to really draw a line under the storyline?
Could it even be enough to fund two of the newest Type Rs to the grid?
Pure hypothesis, but I think if they were actually out 110% we would have something official. From a pure media standpoint announcing such a big loss too close to the season opener would threaten to overshadow any positive news.
Announcing two of the most well-known rivals competing together for one last season would be a hell of a story.
Pure hunch. Watch me get proven wrong…

All valid and possible. Of course all of the stories are in the Motorsport bubble and not in the big World where the money is….
