Well, we gave it away giftwrapped on a platter. Ready for GMSV to take the baton and continue the legacy with in Newcastle next year.
Nice little pre-recorded segment shown from GEN3 parity testing with larko exclaiming that aero was within 1kg between the two cars. Almost like they expected Fords concerns to be made public and they needed some material to discredit their claims with.

The fluff going on trying to mask the issues is laughable.
Burgess is a maniac who wont listen to the Manufacturers and is a bully and control freak.
His blind refusal to allow GM and Ford participate in the VCAT process is a sign he isnt comfortable with the system.
He has one big problem though when it comes to parity...

Ford threatening to stand their ground on parity is as hollow as Ferrari's threats to withdraw from F1.
Let's hope that's the case. I rather not see it out there, than experience a repeat of the last 2 years with a hobbled product.
Ford Performance isn't mucking about. They've already seen what can happen in this category when they lose control (to AB @ Supercars) over the integrity of their Mustang racing product with G2.
What I don't like about the process is that Supercars has signed off on VCAT process despite Ford not agreeing to it and Supercars does not need their approval. Call me stupid, but why would you start this process if you have no accountability for the process? We can whinge at Supercars all we want but Ford should have got this sorted before investing. If we are seeing a deficiency already then good luck next year. I just don't seeing DJR stepping up. They are making those small mistakes they were renown for before Penske got involved. Looks like it's Indy car for me again next year.
