What makes this stupid is that CAMS stated that they had informed LDM of this yesterday.

So, one of three things has happened as far as I can tell:

1. LDM has announced a driver even though they knew that he wouldn't be able to compete.

2. The CAMS press release was bullshit and they had not contacted LDM regarding Chahda's exemption, which therefore would mean that LDM confirmed their driver even tho they didn't know whether he would actually be able to compete.

3. LDM never confirmed Chahda in the first place. However, that would mean that both Speedcafe and the official website of the series are wrong.

In any case, what a farce.

Some Nissan news.

The livery on Jack Le Brocq's Dunlop Series Nissan has been revealed. He'll also be doing two rounds in the main game as a wildcard entry, co-driving with Todd Kelly in the enduros and doing Friday test sessions throughout the year.

Here are some photos of Simona de Silvestro's car for the year (from a little while back):

GRM is jumping on the wildcard bandwagon as well, this time with James Golding, who for some reason won't be competing in the development series this year.

Now Macauley Jones will be running at some events. We could end up with 29 cars at some rounds.

I like the Erebus #9 and GRM cars.

Incidentally, Richard Muscat & James Golding will be partnering Moffat & Tander respectively, while Luke Youlden & Chris Pither will be partnering Reynolds & Wood at Erebus. Also Alex Premat will be driving with McLaughlin again this year (I forgot to mention that earlier)
