Hi Rob, below is the response from Chalks, and also his response to a goodwill message on behalf of all of us:
Hi Doug
Thanks for the feeback, the guy's work really hard so it's good to know that their efforts are recognised by everyone.
Owen is not contracted to DJR beyond this season, we are currently
discussing options with him, but it is still very early in the main
championship and we will see how he goes when he gets 18 at Sandown and Bathurst.
Steve
Hope that helps, fellas
