So… Mr Ojeda seems to have lost his enduro ride at Erebus..
Is TFH coming back, or is it gone with Mr Hazelwood out of the big seat? Is there a synchronicity in TFH’s deal apparently only going for a few rounds, then Mr Kostecki returns? Is there any causal link between the departure of the Erebus CEO and Mr Kostecki’s return? Or just another weirdo Erebus coincidence? Will Mr Kostecki run #1 or #99? |

How late was this mountain v’s Mohammed moment finalised? Mr Hazelwood and Mr Le Brocq were testing BMW production endurance cars late last week at Taupo… |

Was never confirmed in the first place, he just cut some laps at the test day.Numero uno
Both team and driver have remained consistent throughout the saga, maintaining it was a health issue and giving no other information. If there was another underlying issue, unless somebody breaks ranks, we may never know what it was. |

Soooo, removing Boost labelling fixed the health issue? There must be money in that ...

Perhaps he should have said no and taken the Erebutians interfering in a contractual effecting to court… |

Boost would have to take Kostecki to court as the sponsorship agreement was between it and the driver, not it and the team. There would likely be a clause in Kostecki's contract with Erebus giving the team the right to veto any personal sponsorship arrangement, or at least prevent any signage appearing while the driver is on Erebus duty.

AVL kept the speedcafe story very short……maybe running for cover?
Didn’t AA claim it was a health thing from the start? |

It's all so bizarre, difficult to understand what's going on... With Brodie's return it seems to get even more confusing. Good to see him back but the whole saga leaves a sour taste. Now interesting to see if he's back with Erebus only until the end of the year? Can't see him staying beyond.

Great to see it's sorted in any case! Will Coca-Cola and Shaw & Partners be back? It's also very curious that the relationship between Erebus Motorsport and their 2022 title sponsor Boost Mobile seems to have soured. It's also very odd that fellow former sponsor, Steve Blackmore of SCTR, refuses to follow the official Erebus Motorsport company line of Kostecki health issues, much like Adderton: Quote:
- Steve Blackmore, SCTR https://wwos.nine.com.au/motorsport/...ctr-exclusive/ Blackmore's statements are cryptic! Are they incorrect when compared to the more factual statements from Erebus Motorsport? Last edited by V8 Fireworks; 8 Apr 2024 at 06:51. |

Kostecki will run #1. As for the managers, wasn't the dilemma around Nathan Cayzer rather than the departed Shannen Kiely? I mean Cayzer is Kostecki's manager and Erebus' commercial manager at the same time. |

The self proclaimed journalists from AdCafe or AutoFiction or even FaxSports might just do well to ask a few questions around this rather than simply proclaiming the return of the messiah unnuanced.

As to whether the issue is dead and buried, or it is just a case of contractual obligations being fulfilled, we will have a better idea when Kostecki's 2025 plans are revealed. |

Just when you thought it couldn't get anymore bizarre. He's basically sacrificing the medium to long term (by agreeing to drop Boost logos) in order to get his career restarted, whether it's for the remainder of this year or longer.

The events surrounding the hiatus seem to have annoyed just about every other sponsor enough to run for the hills, why not add another one.. ?

Both Dane and Morris had a bit to say on the subject. Morris is very close to BK, Morris pointed a finger at the team management. Now it's all back to happy families again. Nothing to see here, move on don't ask question pls. Brodie was just needing some time, we all need time don't we. Don't expect any journalists to dig up anything, because there aren't any. They went out with the milkmen.

Brodie tried to get out of his contract to drive for a boost backed entry with (premiAir) (refer: slade down and out Bathurst and Brodie being made to remove a sticker off his lid) Betty, she has a champ and she’s not letting him walk, let the lesser lights go but not Brodie! Next year: he’s not resigning for Erebus so it’s going to get more and more awkward. Has he let go of boost because he’s signed for …. DJR ? With Ford Performance backing him into the USA ala waters ? Why else would he burn adderton ? |

Here’s me wondering if V8Supercar has a health management protocol in place to test and assess fitness, both mental and physical, prior to being cleared to drive the race car.
Especially since nobody associated with the pilot or team wants to share the health issue.. and the images of the pilot most recently has him looking remarkably svelte. The usual array of blood tests, hair samples, ct scans, an mri, interviews, physical aptitude tests, checking ingress and egress times for the car… Dr Claire Lewicki could do the work… |

If there was a medical condition, be it mental or physical, that would have deemed the driver unfit to drive, then his competition licence would have been suspended and only reinstated once Motorsport Australia was satisfied the issue had been dealt with.

Sounds reasonable, except Supercars management already know it’s none of the above. So no testing required, just signature on some legal paperwork….
