"It's Almost Done" - Frosty

Story Here

Will knowing this free Mr Winterbottom of the pressure of chasing the championship, allowing him to just run each race separately..?

Or has the old FPR curse crept into the formbook.?

They're nowhere. They have qually pace in the Supercheap car, but they haven't had sharp end race pace in any of their cars for months. Freeing drivers of championship pressure wont change a thing.

Its a race for who has been the most disappointing this year, Prodrive or Penske.

In the V8 era:

Ingall ran 8th in 2006.
Courtney ran 10th in 2011.

Only went as far back as '83, and not counting the likes of Lowndes and Fracievic, who didn't return the following year.

So far, Courtney 10th, Moffat 9th, and Ingall 8th.

which is probably far enough back. different era then with a lot less full time drivers or different methods of championship

dont think frosty is going to challenge them, although possible

Blah, Frosty trots out the most trite crap.

"We're going to show people who is boss this year"

"Championship is gone, I'm going for wins"

The championship was really already gone. He would do well to just STFU and sit down and look at his data!

Is that Moffat's 83 championship? He did miss races due to injury at Surfers in 1984
