Same spot where Rick and Lowndes clashed all those years ago.
And we know what a bunfight that caused............. |

Saw a replay, I think you're right........not sure if Will just resented SVG passing him or whether something happened prior to the incidents that led to the crash.........obviously Will would have wanted to finish in front of Whincup and not sure how he got behind him (have to watch the replay again), probably all caused by frustration on Will's part.

Speaking of bun fights....
V8 VETERAN Russell Ingall has slammed his younger rivals as soft, "latte-sipping rich kids" following a Twitter war with rivals including Jonathon Webb, Michael Patrizi and Dean Fiore. Latte's on the ground please... now, handbags at 12 paces! Quote:

I think Ingall is probably right.........how many of these poofy little "gen Y" drivers did it the hard way???

Actually SVG started it by getting into the back of Will and pushing Will's rear guard onto the tyre (SVG seemed to have a faster car at that stage) SVG got through and then Will returned the compliment to SVG........that started the chain of events.

What real harm was there to driver safety leaving the car there. At worst a car goes off on the slowest corner on the track and gets a dinged up front bumper. |

Was Winterbottoms pit release not worthy of a drive through penalty or did Coulthard have to have his car do a complete rollover ?

i think i need to see a slo-mo replay, as i initially thought Whincup started it by tagging Shane and maybe Slade on his way through ??

Great drives by WD, CL, Bright and SVG .
I'm sure that 888 are kicking themselves for not getting JW to move aside for CL a couple of laps earlier. I thought JW was generous on a couple of occasions for not doing a GT and pushing a couple of drivers wide at Siberia. FPR officially own HRT. |

a) You know very well that, in the interests of safety, the sc car should've came out at that time.
b) The sc gets put out for lesser dangers. c) If you're not going to put it out for that type of danger at that time, for similar dangers, don't put it out at other anytime! d) Hence, your entertainment isn't as important as - Safety. - Keeping the natural flow of the race. No, at worst, it will write off one or more cars. (As if you could trust the current lot of drivers) |

Q11
R11 Series Points So. Mr Davison is back in the series lead.. the 3 main protagonists (MW, WD, JW) are a hair's breath apart... with the rest fighting for scraps in the championship points position... I thought it interesting on the #7 coverage that Mr Skaife mentioned that he had had a chat with Mr Reynolds, and offered some driving advice for where to place the car on the track, after yesterday's race... only for him to go backwards in today's event? Did Mr Reindler get any kind of penalty for the pitlane double up? Mr Coulthard's race was ruined.. with extra stops he didnt need to fix a blown tyre and flailing mudguard.... No speed apparent from the DJR quartet either.. Mr Bright seemed genuinely pleased to be in 3rd place. Even when he won twice last year, the smile was not on that dial.... And thumbs up for the SBR engine shop.. if Mr Larkham is right and the engine in Mr van Gisbergen's car has been in since season start, and has 5,000km on it without a top to toe rebuild... it says a LOT for engine performance on a budget! |

I was wondering whether the rule could be simplified to state that if the first car from a team is in the lane being serviced, the second car couldnt pit, or indeed it should be required to do the equivalent of a drive thru... unless it was retiring to the garage for more serious attention. In the story of further attention, how could GRM in this day and age 'forget' to put an incompressible jack stand under their #34 car to fix the steering arm? They should have larger fines than current, and none of this suspension till the end of the year junk.... |

Surely, Monsieur Premat must be wondering whether his contract will go the distance by now.
Who was the worst performing fulltime GRM pilot previously? |
