Hopefully tomorrow will put an end to most, if not all of the rumours and from then on it will be all news.

Yep , agree,

and some of them might not make an official announcement until a couple of weeks out from the first race, because it's their official launch even though there will be nothing unknown by then.[bc]

Finally a press release from one of the teams.

Patrizi confirmed for PCR
Release date: 02/01/2009

Michael Patrizi will join Fabian Coulthard as the drivers of a revamped Paul Cruickshank Racing (PCR) in 2009.

PCR has expanded from a one-car team last year to become a two-car team in 2009, which will see Patrizi run an Ausdrill liveried BF Falcon.

Coulthard has signed up for another two years with the team and will drive a brand new FG Falcon with Wilson Security livery.

Wilson Security stepped up from its minor sponsorship deal with PCR in 2008 to become a major sponsor for the team this year following the withdrawal of Glenfords Tools as a sponsor.

Patrizi, who originates from Western Australia, debuted in V8 Supercars last year with the now-defunct Ford Rising Stars Racing (FRSR).

Ausdrill, which was founded in Kalgoorlie (WA) in 1987, was the main FRSR sponsor and the international drilling and mining company has moved its sponsorship across to PCR with Patrizi.

The second licence for PCR to run as a two-car team has been obtained from Jason Bright.

News of the team's expansion is on top of a deal made last year that will see the team run what are arguably the best Falcons in V8 Supercars.

In December, PCR entered into an exclusive commercial agreement for full ongoing technical and engineering support from Triple Eight Race Engineering in 2009.

While Triple Eight will supply a number of teams with the cars, PCR will be the only team besides TeamVodafone to get such an extensive level of support.

These developments mean the #111 Falcon has the equivalent spec to the TeamVodafone cars.

Coulthard will debut the brand new Wilson Security FG at the Clipsal 500 in March, while Patrizi will use Coulthard's 2008 BF chassis.

Exclusive pictures and more information on the 2009 PCR liveries can be found in the January/February edition of V8X Magazine.

Just heard on the news this morning that Paul Morris is in negotiations with Jaques Villenueve to take over his seat this year. Apparantly Jaques was keen on a drive at Bathurst only but is now considering taking up an offer of a full time drive.

Statement from PMM: Yes, we're talking to Jaques VIlleneuve, Michael Schumacher, Mika Hakkinen at the moment, all asking for 2 million a season... we can fall back on Mark Skaife if none of this comes off, as he'll be happy to work for half what the others are asking.... ;)

Old Skaife is sure trying to paint himself as a victim over his career, blaming his "episodes" and control freak behaviour on his desperation to be adored by the fans and will to win.

I think the man is just a cnut, end of story.
