Funny how relevant this is. How was there no saftey car for Todd Kelly's car???
I also feel a lot of the blame for the current fiasco lies squarely at Race Control's feet. They've created a situation where penalties are inconsistent, drivers can just redress themselves, things said in the driver's briefing seem to be forgotten once the lights go out etc
Maybe ex drivers shouldn't be officials...
