Why is everyone assuming he will be replaced? It dosen't work like that, this isn't a works drive. We see drivers struggling at the best of times for money. This is a relatively large independent team with drivers who are their 'customers' they will pay about 7-15 peoples 9 to 5, 40 hour a week wages.
Erm..............because the team manager has said that they will still be running two cars, and I don't care how tallented Matt Alison is, he can't drive two at the same time ;)Quote:

Their was talk not so long ago about Scott bringing in a third somewhere. But not one time did I think one would become available so soon.Quote:

Then theirs his budget. He said on btcc.net he has enough. And I think why waste that budget on a paid works drive? If he has the money for an Independent drive use it.
Ferrier announced for this weekend and hopefully for the remainder of 2007:

I think you're missing the point: if a driver is offered a paid works drive then they wouldn't need to bring a budget. (Of course, not all works drives are paid positions...)Quote:

Tom Ferrier is a good driver and is a worthy replacement for Howell at Motorbase.
