Iīm sorry but it has been 9 years and in those years they have got some good cars and he didnīt deliver either and assuming that the problem is the car there is no reason for making him such a hero until he get at least a championship, plus a driver always can push a team forward and he didnīt

I highly doubt Hendrick will give up Mears. they were fitting to get him for at least 2 years and the cars they said they've given him, he doesn't like, Hendrick will give him newer cars suited to Mears.
so I think Hendrick is out of the question with Jr., you got to be thinking if Yeley is in hot water in the 18 or if Jr. will go to the 33 for RCRBrian France is a violation of Section 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing)

He is being treated like the Danica Patrick of Nascar and he deserves so much better than that
Plus Iīm not against him switching teams what I hate is reading about people thinking and wishing that a good team should disappear because of a single driver

Im not saying that I think Jr is one of the top drivers... Im actually more of a Hendrick fan myself..... but I dont think DEI has kept up with the changing technology as a result of poor management and less financial support going into research and development. I believe Jr's career in recent yrs has been riddled with internal conflict, personal tragedies and media distractions. I think he has the talent & enthusiasm to be more successful than given credit. With the constant power struggles at DEI almost behind him, I am optimistic that he will become more consistent and focused on winning.

3 years on Rally 2s as they are now. No additional costs, no kits, nothing. As they are now. Use 2025 to work out new regs from 2028 onwards. Simple. But, no, Hyundai will cry and Ford may be...
