If Tony or any other competitor thinks they have had enough practice time they can park the car.It will help save their tyre bank.There are so many drivers inexperienced at Bathurst in the field each year they need the track time.For a point of comparison Le Mans has 10 hours of practice/qualifying across 2 days before the race.In many years there is also a test day with about 6 hours of running a few weeks before.
Agree with Scudd this year was better than last because of less time lost under red flags.They even extended practice sessions to make up for red flag time.
