They both made some silly errors in their final years.

Spares may be another factor, a glut of top tier left overs potentially, if Gen3 has more (different) control items, or potentially less available if those parts need to be made and the manufacturers don't see the return in making more. |

Super2 teams have a variety of ways to keep costs down AFAIK. E.g., using older spec parts, not crack testing all components between every round, stretching engine mileage out etc.

It is interesting to see an engineer split from a driver like that.

Could be good for SVG to shake things up.
Needs a little bit more consistency and quali speed. Wasn't JW ahead of him until Bathurst? |

Alistair McVain over to Kelly's apparently - huge exodus from Erebus.
With a rumour around 2 rookies and a huge brain drain on engineering talent I'm concerned about a big fall here. |

Wonder if selling Ryan a REC was such a great idea?

Indications are that Penrite are gone too, following a driver. Penrite NZ couldn't give away De Pasquale/Reynolds-branded gear quickly enough at a recent NZ event

I would thought a natural progression "as he got older" would be Co Driver in Kelly Racing and Management ? Anyone? |

There definitely seems to be something happening. After all, not much wrong with Kelly racing, so I would hazard a guess there is some rift between the brothers, until we got more info
I guess some things weren't meant to be, although it seemed those two brothers were the perfect combo. Guess we will have to wait and see |

My understanding is that Castrol were paying nowhere near market rates to be on that car, and has been the case for the past few years. |
