It has been confirmed that Craig Baird will be leaving Team Kiwi at the end of the season, and will be heading to WPS Racing for next year.

It was confirmed that Baird signed another 2 years with TKR months ago but due to the money side of things, I think he changed his mind LOL.

This now opens the possibility of Paul Radisich going to Team Kiwi as it isn't looking promising for him going to FPR.

Besnard wouldnt be staying anyway, he only took the drive because he had no option last year, to the point he was considering going to holden for the year or worse overseas (just to stay racing) which is why he took the alternating WPS thing when they only had 1 licence

Well aparnetly Radisich has already agreed to join FPR )but nothing has been announced yet) due to the fact that he has a strong relationship with one of the teams lead figures from his days back in England in the BTCC.

There has been rumored that TKR might be planning a merge with Paul Morris Motorsport. As Morris has been wanting to have a two car team for a while and maybe this will be his opportunity. TKR and PMM were planning a merger before Sandown (as the original idea was that Morris and Baird team up together) but that didnt take off all that well.

I think Baird would be better off somewhere else rather than WPS. GRM would have been a better option i think.
