I think that’s perhaps his least realistic hope given the cost…

Not technically, but as Tony doesn't really have any cars or equipment, and still owes hundreds of thousands of pounds, another comeback is looking less than likely.

Unless something absolutely crazy happens I think his best shot is one of the Cupras.

Not "technically"? They are certainly not trading, which looks very much as if they have folded.

"Tony..."? Is he a friend or acquaintance of yours?

Correct, they're not trading, although still listed on Companies House, with Samantha Gilham as the director. I think he was an acquaintance of a lot of people!

Disagree. He's very highly valued there and they gave him a chance when no one else would

I guess the only thing that me and Evantra are concerned about is how the whole Zeus Cloud thing went down and if that would stop WSR ever working with him again because it went so wrong or if they've been around Motorsport so long that they know sponsors flaking out on commitments is just one of those things and if a deal could be worked out for 2025.

I fixed the bit in bold for you.

...gave him a a cheap seat on a monthly payment plan when more competitive seats required 50% up front and 50% before the last round

I think every team would give him a chance, had he had the money. And I would imagine WSR is the most expensive seat going, that’s the problem. I’d give a lot to see it happen though.
