2014 Enduro pairing

[Bundy]

Luff's services will no longer be required by 888 from next year onwards - good move as I felt he was holding Lowndesy back from achieving his potential.

Also, pretty clear that he was the slowest out of all the co-drivers from the two main competing squads for the enduros in 888 and FPR.

Paul Dumbrell's future remains in the air. 888 might elect not to have him as a driver given that he is prone to making a mistake or two but against this is the backdrop of him really being the outstanding co-driver on average for this year's enduros and really close to being as quick as any of the main drivers tbh.

When you weigh this up with what the Autobarn sponsorship means to the team, it probably points to 888 retaining Dumbrell's services next year.

888 should chase Ingall.

agree

Richo leaves FPR to join up with Lowndesy and 888 for the enduros next year. Good to see Richo back driving a commodore!

Dumbrell confirmed as well which makes sense that they don't want to mess with a winning formula with JW.

A strong former perkins connection there with Richo and Dumbrell back as team-mates again

Strong pairing for 888 next year.

Wonder who they going to put with Tander next year, With Percat getting a main game seat( This is presuming Murphy back with JC)

Yep to much diff in height, I am leaning towards Briscoe if he is available, But that is a guess.

Briscoe has a full time Indy gig this year, may effect his availability

Oh well looks as if we can count one of the FPR cars out of winning the enduros with Paul Morris signing to be Mostert's team-mate

I literally can't believe that

I keep telling you blokes that FPR are a team that just keeps on giving, First rocking up to the test day with the wrong gear ratios in not one but all 4 cars, Now they sign up a never was called crash bandicoot, Good work Timmy hope they give you a 10 year contract extension.

Hopefully Timmy will just focus on those two FPR cars and leave at least the #18 alone
