Damn Waters, T8'ed it hard.

Also wonder how much the need to protect splitters is going to cost some ZB teams, it's going to take compromises in setup to reduce the U/S.

You wonder whether the championship result might be decided early, it didn't happen with the VE as some suspected but if they are slow out of the blocks it could really hurt them.

That lap of Whincup's would have been interesting to see - but we've seen it plenty of times before.

I note also that Riana hasn't learned to speak over the break.

Amen to that.
A corner with consequences, should be more of them.

I'm all for a bit of consequence etc etc but tbh for a bit of excitement for the viewer it's a nightmare for teams and mechanics in particular, not to mention the costs associated with a small mistake there.

Personally all I'd like to see changed there is a safer barrier to absorb the energy better.

Whincup is now a testament to that!

EDIT: That front end ripping out at speed is extremely ugly, could that car be a scratching?

Another monster hit at T8 - this time from the Skye Sands Super2 car.

The best looking car in the field too, imo.

Had a power steering failure according to Murph (either way the car just didn't turn on the entry to the corner).

The corner has caused problems from day 1 (ill conceived?). Whether it is dangerous or a challenge is debatable. T8 may be a proper ass but SVG was on top? I have predicted on these forums that WAU will be a major force this year re JCO comment.
