I was a little gutted at that too
I've always liked that the cars are still in 'battle condition' - ie filthy and still coveted in bits of tape ! However, I'm guessing corporate pressure dictates the cars must be immaculate and all sponsorship logos clear to see
That along with all the boring EV road cars and some silly reversing hill climb record is, unfortunately, I feel the beginning of the end of FOS great years :(
