FPR enduro squad

Heard a rumour today that FPR may be looking for a replacement driver for the Enduros. Apparently one of the drivers is not up to speed in the car and maybe replaced. Interestingly the replacement could be a driver currently pencilled in at another team.

Hmmm... might I have suggested something similarly rather recently...

I hope Andy Jones goes well, and that if he is being legroped into the FPR squad for the enduros, that he is also in possession of a multi year deal with expensive get out clauses for FPR

Guess there potentially could be 4 drivers from a certain South Australian based team that could have some time on their hands depending on the results of an impending inquiry.

Simon Wills would make a great #1 for FPR

Jones, and for that matter any of the highly rated Konica drivers are probably better in the enduro position compared to the imports.. They know the cars down pat, experience isn't really there, but they'll be told just to keep the car on the black stuff so they won't be doing anything too stupid.
If this is true, where do people see BJR picking up a driver?

I hope not!!! If FPR where dumb enough to get someone from the UK instead of someone local, why should BJR be put out for dumb arse management?? If I was Andy, I'd rather drive for BJR than FPR, he'd have a better chance to wim at BJR than he ever could at FPR!!! And wouldn't Andy not have a contact with BJR to drive at Sandown & Bathurst away??

Which remaining Konica drivers would be on the short list, all the good ones have already been picked up!

Jose Fernandez
Grant Elliott
Wayne Wakefield
Gary MacDonald
Jamie Cartwight

Mark Noske is doing nothing at the moment.

I'm actually none of the teams have booted one of there penciled in drivers for Noske already. He would be easily the top pick of drivers without a drive especially as he has been racing most the year.
