Wonder what that will mean for Craig Lowndes as I think he is contracted to Ford and not 888?

Given the success they have had, and all the time, money and effort they have invested in the FG I would be very surprised if this happened. But, 'never say never' I suppose. Stranger things have happened....

the drivers have signed contracts with 888, not the manufacturers.

Lowdnes and Whincup are contracted to 888 for the next 3 years I believe.

Hi,

Apparently it's being reported by Motorsport eNews - does anyone have a subscription to the online racing magazine?

Cheers,
Nik
