Time for new drivers/sponsors?

Question

Hey,

could anyone tell me around what time of year race teams start actively looking for new drivers and also around what time of year sponsors start looking for new prospects for the next season.

preferably a more specific date like end of july etc. but anything is fine

thanks in advance

Answer 1

its all about contracts expiration's, in truth people are always looking at the other drivers in the field and in lower brackets, but its when they or the prospect is nearing the end of the contract that active offers start taking place, usually its around the last 3rd to quarter of the season that all the rumors start flying
