Interesting could it be that buying ones way hasn't been paying off and that talent might be of value?

Interesting. Who would he replace? Atkinson or Solberg.

odd that they would bring him in before the switch to the s2000 style cars....I have the feeling next year will be fairly boring, but I like the idea of somebody with some character out driving again

I guess SRT came to sense that "paying" a good driver is better than having a mediocre driver pay for the seat like it was the case with Atkinson.
