Just announced - Steven Richards To Drive For FPR
Just heard on the wireless:
Steven will replace Jason Bright in 2007 and will drive for FPR beside Mark Winterbottom.
I suppose Steven just strives for excellence with whoever he races for and whatever he races.
Still a shame to lose him to the Ford pack.... he wasn't always on the front row - but he can drive a good race...

This was one of the worst kept secrets of the year in the V8 field.
Seems Perkins is the new recruiting agent for Ford, first Ingall now Richards. But FPR have done very well and they're car seems to be getting stronger each year so Steven hasn't made a backwards step.

Weren't there murmers of this late last year? Someone told me it he was going to ford, just didn't know which team.
Not that it matters, the cars are basically the same now with different badges.

Why, because now he drives a different badge? There is no difference in cars except a badge.

Lol, some people don't see it that way, they thrive on the rivalry between holden and ford and will see this differently.
Me, i just love to watch good racing!
