The bathurst 1000 in 2012 ran 3 hours to the finish, the last two years the race has been almost half over (by laps) before the first safety car. almost every years the 1000 has an average faster lap that 12 hour because of less safety cars and then usally less average laps under safety cars.

For instance even though the 1000 was ran on wets often 30 seconds a lap of qualifying pace it completed 161 laps quicker than the 12 hour did which was run in the dry (7hr11min compared 7hr18min) Clearly there is no interest in having prolonged periods of safety cars in the 1000. I can see no evidence its the goal of the 12 hour promoters ever (although Clearly many fans on here dont care)

To deny there isnt a safety car issue in the 12 hour is to put ones head in the sand

2017 Bathurst 1000 6 Safety cars for ten laps 7 Hours 11
2018 Bathurst 12 hour 17 Safety cars for 47 laps. 12 hours

50 cars vs 26.... what do you expect..seriously??
