As as normal, Victor shows how a gentleman should act and accepts this with thanks for their past.

It's a shame, hope they can pick up a major sponsor soon, with a bit of money and more development Ben surely could get up the front with Judd, Zappia and Fab.

Yeah Victor always the gentleman, his professional response to losing this sposnsorship should hold him in high regards going foward looking for a new sponsor.
Another oil company would get good exposure on the side of his cars and would generate a good focus on a new potential sponsor.

Thats a shame to hear the split of 20yr sponsorship, im sure Team Bray as a gentleman as Vic is will find another sponsor, as long as he stays here in Aus and not all pack up and go to USA.
