There's plenty out there in the history of the sport to lay at the hands of Dumbrell, but his stint as a co-driver at Red Bull probably see's him get the raw end at times - particularly Bathurst, as seen here -

That video is really rather brutal.

Whincup really has coughed up a couple of Bathursts, plain and simple.

Agreed

GRM and Team 18 were pretty bad this year too.

Why did they go away from the standardised yellow window stickers?

Except that courtesy of double stacking he was only go to finish 3rd at best in 2015. Still can't let the truth get in the way of a good hatred story.

They can't do that anymore, it was stopped in 2009 I think. The reason for it is that there Is more room for sponsors to place on the car with numbers on the window

It's not that they can't, it's that they don't.

However, the door numbers do appear from time to time.

I know the reasons but the most commercially savvy branch of our sport, NASCAR, has avoided going down this road.

Something tells me that Mr Penske is going to throw D'Alberto out like a dog in the same manner he did to Scotty Pye, I would think Fabian wouldn't be too far away from it either if he doesn't impress Penske. It was silly to get rid of Pye as they had rotten cars last year. If they performed like Triple 8 I would understand. This will be like Davy out of PRA, Penske will lose supporters and they may suffer in performance, not for Scott M but from Fabian.

Mr D'Alberto tested the upgrades for DJRTP prior to Homebush.. in place of Mr Pye..

Same as during the various videos of the 'inside' of DJRTP, Mr D'Alberto was suggested to be closer to Mr Pye's pace than Mr Youlden was to Mr Coulhard's...

You wouldn't think Mr D'Alberto is the bloke at risk...

Yes, Yes, No IMO.

I could have sworn I read something a while back that Alex was confirmed to be driving with SMc.

I'd be surprised if they would move away from Youlden, given they enticed him over along with Fabs and Phil Keed - or listened to Fabs and/or Phil's recommendation.
