I have noticed that on the main two social media outlets there is a campaign to keep Julian Porter in WRC. Now for one I like him and I think Jules 'the guru" as he is called and he does a good job. I just wonder if morally the media types who post on the social networks are abusing their power to keep their friends who have flown around the world, stayed in rally HQ, for 11 years in a job? Not that I think it will influence Jean Todt and FIA one bit! - I just wondered why there wasn't such a campaign to keep all those Ralliart, Subaru World Rally team, Suzuki Rally Team and latterly Petter Solberg World Rally Team personnel that lost their jobs in WRC. Don't get me wrong, I honestly feel really sorry for those who have lost their jobs in NOS, but they are not the first to have lost them. Also I think that NOS have had it good for a while, its been more than once during the last 11 years that 'financial rescue' was needed, it wasnt called North One last time it needed rescuing, and also where was the due diligence when Antonov invested? After all it was only months ago he invested, and IF the allegations of dirty money etc are true, well questions should be asked of NOS senior management. FIA may well have taken the 'once bitten' view and viewed this as an opportunity to re-start.
