FPR 2005 TO BE REVEALED AT THE AUSTRALIAN MOTORSPORT SHOW THIS WEEKEND

16/2/2005 18:49 (Press Release) - The long wait to see the new look of FPR for the 2005
season will be over from February 18-20 when the blue oval team uncovers their
BA Falcon V8 Supercars at the 2005 Australian Motorsport Show in Melbourne.

Ford Performance Racing (FPR) will be revealing the blue oval team's two new
BA Falcon V8 Supercar challengers at the 2005 Australian Motorsport Show, to
be held at the Royal Exhibition Building (Carlton) from February 18-20.

Australia's only public event dedicated solely to the national motor racing
industry is a must for all racing fans young and old. Now in its third year,
this event marks the start of a momentous year of racing starting with the
Australian Grand Prix in March.

Along with providing a first look at the team's exciting new liveries for the
2005 season, this will also be the first official 2005 team appearance for
FPR's two new drivers, Jason Bright and Greg Ritter.

Jason Bright, one of V8 Supercar's most competitive drivers and the last Ford
driver to win the Bathurst 1000, marks his blue oval return at this event. Greg
Ritter celebrates the start of his first full V8 Supercar season this weekend
at the Australian Motorsport Show following his memorable drive to victory for
Ford in the 2004 Sandown 500.

Both Bright and Ritter will be meeting FPR fans at the Australian Motorsport
Show on Sunday February 20 between 11:00am to 3:00pm. The two new FPR drivers
will also be taking part in panel interview discussions on centre stage during
their visit.

FPR will also have team members on hand to answer questions throughout the show
which is open to the public from 1:00pm this Friday (February 18).

FPR fans at the 2005 Australian Motorsport Show will also get their first
opportunity to view and purchase items from the new and exciting FPR 2005
season merchandise range throughout this three day event.
