Not really happy about not getting a PDP in the KOP, but I understand. As FRC continues to grow, the KOP will continually get smaller. The growth of FRC teams will put pressure on teams to do 'more with less'. It is a downside of FRC growing so dramatically.

I guess that means teams' marketing/PR squads will become more valuable as they service the team's sponsors.
