TeamVodafone boss Roland Dane says his star driver Craig Lowndes has agreed to a new deal that will extend his career by at least three years. Read more: http://www.foxsports.com.au/motor-sp...#ixzz2A7I7j59N The 29-year-old has won three championships, 53 race wins and three Bathurst 1000 victories in his six years with the team. And despite rumours linking him with a move overseas, he says he’s committed to V8 Supercars having put pen to paper on a new three-year deal with Triple Eight starting from 2013. http://www.v8x.com.au/index.php/9-ne...er-three-years |

McConville's driven a Honda F1 car, Lowndes has driven the Maclaren.
Pretty sure there's one or two more. |

Don't forget that Davison and Courtney have tested F1 cars before (Davison with Minardi and Courtney with Jaguar)

But the difference is Courtney is the only one that has driven a 'current spec' (at the time) F1 car regularly. Everyone else has only driven older machines as one-off promotional activities. And yes, I do understand that the cars Lowndes and Whincup have driven are more recent than what Courtney used to test. |

I think he's earned every right to be in the championship, considering he hasn't been outside the top 5 since 2004.
When it comes to endurance time, he is very, very good. |

Still one of the best at Bathurst - still very, very good at most rounds.
Probably still in the top 5 or 6 drivers in championship. And his commercial worth means that while ever he's competitive at Bathurst he'd be worth holding onto. |
