    Story: Fans deserve better.

    https://autoaction.com.au/2019/10/07...HRUdVkwd6nNi_w

    Supercars Risks alienating its core audience if it doesn’t do a better job of explaining in-season technical changes.

    That’s the strong view of DJR Team Penske managing director and co-owner Ryan Story, who has watched the Ford Mustang slowed several times this year.

    “We continue to have to earn our place in the sporting landscape and we alienate our supporters at our peril,” Story told Auto Action. “We do that when we make changes without explaining how and why, and without demonstrating the validation and decision- making behind those processes.”

    “I think sometimes we try to be too politically correct and a little too nice, and a little too concerned about saying it how it is.”

    Basically a story lifted from his comments on the "dismissive Dane-defending dude" video?

    The other point id make is they would probably bring the sport into greater disrepute if they were honest about why the changes have happened....

    Old news and the bullshit train just keeps on rolling on to the next station when the next change gets done.
