Rehall to drive for Team NOPEA Finland
It is a official, after a bit of negotiating, Roman Rehall has agreed to a one year AES contract to drive the #37 Koenigsegg Agera R for S22.

Alex Allen is still looking for a ride.

I know Alex Allen is getting quite old, but I think Durbinsport, D&C, or FUEL Brothers should definitely look into him. Wonder when Allen's retirement season will be...

Team NOPEA Finland releases final roster
After weeks of building up to this moment, releasing driver-by-driver and releasing the S22 Koenigsegg model they'll be using, it's time that Pekkanen released the final roster for Team NOPEA Finland;

#34 - Sean Angel
Sean is a veteran in this sport. He still does not have a championship with him but he is one talented driver. Specifically showing what he can do when he raced with Porsche Developments. He also has done really well in S21 with the new team he's on. With the speed of the Koenigsegg's, it is believed Sean could be a threat to win some races

#37 - Roman Rehall
Roman Rehall was Blue Flare Motorsports' first developmental driver. Being their PT and best driver in their debut season. He did exceptionally well in his rookie season in S20, and besides his lack of consistency in S21, he's had some good finishes with the Blue Flare Motorsports cars. With him coming aboard the team, hoping consistency won't be a problem again, they hope he'll have his best season yet.

#73 - Arttu Nikula (R)
Originally this spot was believed to go to Cooper Syron, but after a while of no response they decided to throw a contract at who they believed may be their best shot. Nikula, being 24, has a open-wheel championship and Team Finland Rally championship under his belt. Both being with Team NOPEA Finland. He was a BFM developmental driver before accepting the contract. And after being crowned first place in the BFM Developmental Camp yr 2 it is hoped he'll be better for his rookie year. Will we see anything from Nikula? It is unknown yet.

^^^That being said (those paragraph things r cool, imma do them too)^^^

Blue Flare Motorsports announces S22 line-up as well

#11 Madeline Myatt (R)
Madeline "Maddie" Myatt is the twin daughter racing protégée of racing legend himself Kenny Myatt. With Kenny retiring from FT competition after S21 Maddie looks to jump in FT. With BFM. She's shown potential in the few races she's done and with BFMs record of outstanding rookies they believe she could be the next superstar female driver.

#41 Xavier De Urie (R)
Who? That's what a lot are saying now. But hopefully everybody will know his name soon. De Urie is a 22 year old driver from St. Helena. He hasn't had any experience in ARCSOA, but has won a championship in the NSL (National StHelena League) and came runner-up to Arttu Nikula in the BFM Developmental Camp. Which is why he got the ride. He is also crazily jacked, being a male bodybuilder in the day. He looks to try and prove something in his rookie season.

#81 William Brock
Everybody knows this guy. The only non-rookie in the S22 fleet. He's came so close to winning so many damn times and obviously has a lot of talent. Luck just never goes his way. With all the changes coming with BFM in S22, they hope he'll do better. He's always done great with their aerodynamic package and since that is gonna try to be improved they hope he'll have a bit more speed. Hopefully this season he can get BFM their first win.

by MrKyleBusch1 October 2nd 2016, 12:12 pm

I can confirm that Christian will be in the 7, Allen will return to the 8 and Shelton will be in the 94

Still looking for a ride...

Spoiler:

^^^That's the updated, current S22 roster for anybody wondering.

by Hsuorttocs October 2nd 2016, 3:22 pm

Lethinen: Happy that Nikula made it! I raced with him a lot back in Finland so it's going to be fun to do that again!

by RedViperGaming October 2nd 2016, 3:26 pm

Rehall: I'll be working with Nikula to improve even more. It's convenient that he comes over to NOPEA, after attending the 2016 Camp that we were both at. Him as a driver, me as a coach. Both of us will be looking to have a strong season. Along with the great Sean Angel.

by **MrKyleCollins** October 2nd 2016, 6:54 pm

Collins: Our rookie class is looking hot this year. But I think, out of all of them, the battle for the ROTY title will be between Myatt, Nikula, and De Urie. Myatt has already proved that she deserves a spot on the track, doing exceptionally well at the American 700. Nikula, who already has two championships from two other motorsports types, and a win from the BFM Developmental Camp will most likely be a threat. But we can't rule out Xavier De Urie, who finished second in the BFM Developmental Camp and who'll possibly have Kenny Myatt as his driving coach. I think it'll be a close battle between the three, and I'm glad I can say I've coached all of them to some degree.

by Hsuorttocs October 2nd 2016, 8:09 pm

Lethinen in response to Collins: Just don't count me out of ROTY, I've gotten the job done when I needed, at the A700 My goal was to be on the lead lap at least. But at Indy I was laying all my cards on the table, so I would say that I have a promising shot at ROTY. Do I expect to get it? Heck no. Just don't count me out of it next season. Not saying you were but it won't just be between them

I'll be 100% honest. I forgot Lethinen was a rookie. If I did he would've been in my list.

Haven't really had time to sit down and figure out what I'm doing with my team next season. Rip.

LOL! Lethinen isn't a rookie for 2 Races, the American 700 and Indy 250

No man, I wasn't trying to guilt you into changing it or anything. I didn't need to make a comment on it at all. No need for you to apologize.
