It paid 15-1, so a nice $300 came my way

Not normally. It usally picks up, but as GTR points out a large gap this year has caused a drop in excitment.

there was meant to be a round at abu dhabi , but it was pulled after the calendar were announced, apparently too late to replace.

however they havent added an event next year to replace it, but they did space things better

So how do you come to the conclusion that it's a great effort by Alex, but you don't know who's on what tyres ?

While topping the timesheets in practice might put a spring in Mr A. Davison's step, it really counts for nothing.

Ok... so who else reckons there is unlocked speed in Mr Whincup's car which might just see him bolt to the front and flog the field?

Whincup will be there at the end, his lap wasn't to the potential of the car. FPR looking very good as are DJR.

has the rules changed regarding having your headlights on while on your fastest lap

Watching Giz (headlights on) trying to get around Tander and A davison (neither had headlights on)

Both GT and AD seemed to be fighting for the spot (in qualyfying)
