Well they put Skaife and Tander in the gun car last year... that didn't work out. HSVDT used hindsight to split their main drivers this time. Triple8 really didn't have much choice other than to pair the two main drivers together. If you were HSVDT, do you go for the win or do you hedge your bets and give either driver the opportunity to win the ch/ship on their own accord? The predicament was the same last year and they went the Triple8 route, which didn't work out for Tander, but it was good for Rick.
I thought the ch/ship was more pertinent to the team than either a Sandown or Bathurst win?
