We at Winton Racing are very glad to hear Nathan is okay for the next race in Aston, and we're also very happy he's still amazingly leading the championship with half a point. Nonetheless, we strongly hope that the higher ups strongly consider removing South City from the 2016 calendar or at least use a layout without that blasted chicane.
Also, we'd like a further weight reduction, and the Winton livery is soon to be replaced - more on that later.

Um, he's already going to replace Yui Megumi at the same round. Although it's your driver so you can always decide to make him drive for your own team instead.

OK, how about Frédéric-Maxime Voeckler? He's still got plenty of potential at the young age of 50 (he was born in 1966). You get his son as part of the deal!

Stramala [kostas22] wrote:Just to make everything crystal clear, I have the following two drivers looking for seats next season;
Gianluigi Pazzini
Diego Mauricio Batistuta
Pazzini has podiums from his half-season in F3RWRS and is currently racing for RonDen in F2RWRS. However he is not being retained for next year and wants to side-step to RoLFS.
Diego Mauricio Batistuta had a good first weekend at the last round with MRT, one of the few people to keep his nose clean.
Motorsport News wrote:[F2RWRS]Pazzini to RoLFS?
After losing his seat in F2 for 2016, Italian Gianluigi Pazzini is rumoured to move to RoLFS.
The dutch team De Friis Motorsport is currently looking for drivers after they sacked Helio Hernandez due to poor results. However, the dutch team has financial troubles, so a new driver might have to bring some funding.

Winton Racing website wrote:New livery for Winton Racing
We at Winton Racing wish to promote change, not hinder it. Our excellent Nathan McKane has shown he is very much capable of succeeding, and considering RoLFS is a mere feeder series we are more than happy to let him leave the team next year for F1RWRS. Because of this news, we've decided to change our livery up a little bit for the rest of the season.
First and foremost, while we're still keeping the black, we have added some green in to show our new partnership with Monster Energy, who have been impressed with our strong performances as a new team and mostly impressed with dominating the opening round in Blackwood. We're also promoting in house band Amphobius - we feel its very important to promote our own music on the car as well!
Our logo has also changed and it will be staying like this for the foreseeable future.
Lastly, Ragnar Larsen is associated with the team and we left him out for the testing sessions - Nathan got a special livery just for him for the races and Larsen didn't get anything for his testing appearances. This has changed and Larsen now has his own livery. It's just changing the name on the wing and adding his name and flag to the side of the car, but we feel its important to treat everyone equally. This was also brought up in the case that Nathan wouldn't be able to make Aston or any future races. Whilst we're glad Nathan is okay for Aston, we are still unsure about the future considering the accidents that have happened recently in South City. We are very confident that if there are any accidents in Aston they will won't be as bad as the ones in South City. We at Winton Racing are disappointed in the event and not the drivers - we don't have any bad blood with Jung or Torrente who were involved in the accident with Nathan, though the same may not be said for the drivers themselves.
But enough of that, see you in Aston! Enjoy the British racing green, too!

Kamaha Motorsports on signing Nathan McKane have decided with their partners to sponsor Winton Racing, NEC will pledge moeny to feature on the side pods and air box, whilst Kamah will feature on the nose. However Winton Racing have not got back to confirm if they have accepted the sponsorship so nothing may come about this.
Winton Racing website wrote:Yet another livery update
As you know from our previous update, the cars have had an overhaul of the liveries. Recently we were given a deal with Kamaha as Nathan is moving to them next year, involving putting the Kamaha logo on the nose as well as the NEC logo on the airbox and sidepods. We've only just agreed to this and the logos can now be found the car. In addition, McKane's personal sponsor, Gigawave returns after a brief absence!
Anyway, this is just a 'small' update on the previous one. Again, see you in Aston!

R.T.S would be willing to lend their reserve Antonio Fazio to you. He comes with some money from Fondmetal.
AndreaModa wrote:Pepsibottle1 wrote:With the vacant seats available, I'd like to throw a driver into the mix. American Matt Brinson is looking for a possible home in the series.
Jones Racing would like to sign Brinson up to the team as official reserve driver immediately, with Brinson subbing for O'Heagan who is both injured and excluded from the next race. After that, Jones would look to sign Brinson to a full time drive in 2016, alongside either Massinion or O'Heagan, depending on results over the rest of this season. This would depend on the nature of Brinson's sponsorship package, and his performance relative to Massinion in the next race.
AndreaModa wrote:Superb, that's a deal then. The sponsorship from Amsoil and Snap-On currently clashes with existing team suppliers Castrol and Beta respectively, and therefore neither logos will appear on the car for 2015, however Motorola will do, and Snap-On will be on the 2016 car when the deal with Beta comes to an end.
So Nuppiz, Matt Brinson will replace O'Heagan for the next event and here is the updated livery with Motorola logos on:

And the livery looks like this.
