A. Davidson in for what sounds like the rest of the season.

Will Alex last the full season?
Hate to be the person in charge of Team Sydney merchandise! |

I find A Davison a surprising signing, given the reports of the acrimonious end to his brother's contract with the same team....

Shock horror, Tekno appear to have been stingy with cash.

Isn't the problem that Courtney seems to have unreasonable expectations?
Davison and Pither seem more than happy to drive the Tekno rockets, so no wonder Webb is less than bothered to meet Courtney's totally unreasonable demands of a salary or up-to-date and well-prepared equipment. The latter is just not the Tekno way! |

I wonder if the Boost money was to pay for fuel and tyres for the car or was that used to pay James in an around about way ?

Maybe he does, but if Tekno thought his remuneration expectations were too high, then it should have said so. Presumably a contract had been signed, or at least agreed in principle, so the money would have been discussed. Under the leadership of Steve Hallam and Geoff Slater, Tekno appeared to be a team going places, sadly it's now just the play toy of an owner who clearly doesn't have the skill set needed to move it up the order.

Techno and Erebus have inversely mirrored each other over the last 5 or so years.

Is Tekno the new LDM?

Coincidence? Or a staffing shakeout, and/or an opportunity to other changes required?

Given the key ex-SBR/Erebus folks over at DJRTP, they haven’t shown to be duds in their more conventional new surrounds.. |

As Erebus took over SBR and went straight to the back of the grid overnight, Techno were right on their game with SvG, Steve Hallam et al. Slowly Erebus began to see the error of their ways and started to get their house in order and improve their performances, while at the same time Techo started to shed key staff and their performance began the slow slide downhill. |

Courtney to Erebus?
Probably won't happen now with the condensed calendar, but would make sense and provide Erebus with a top shelf co-driver for 2021. |

BJR, alongside Mr Jones Jr is what I'm hearing.
I suspect there will be a sponsor swap between #8 and #21 to facilitate a full Boost livery. |

It would be great to see Mr. Courtney piloting the CoolDrive machine on a more regular basis, assuming the CoolDrive kitty supports Mr. Courtney salary demands (as opposed to Jones Jr who presumably drives at no cost to CoolDrive).
Jones Jr has, unfortunately, consistently been more towards the tail-end of the pack than towards the front of the pack. |

Alongside? Surely it would be step aside for Courtney. Name driver with full car sponsor.
