So what is the rationale behind bringing 2 V8Supercar-inexperienced drivers into the share drives with the 2 lead drivers?

Sure Mr Tagliani's involvement is good for the sport, for the enduro races, for the spotters of Mrs Tagliani... but fundamentally it is a large step from one discipline to the other, on foreign circuits (Sandown and Bathurst) where you cant have any testing... where you also wont get to run with 33 other maniacs on the same circuit at any one point.

Arguably it is like the "Paul Newman to Bathurst' stories of the much lamented ARDC Bathurst mythology....
