Same - it's all happening this weekend, Kayo here I come!
4 x Supercar weekends in a row along with recent F1 every weekend is helping to catch up on the Covid drought! |

These tyre rules, what a nonsense, hate it. You know if someone is on softs then they can just cruise past. Just like F1 DRS, it takes away any drama, excitement, anticipation.

14 seconds ahead, you’re telling me that’s fun? That’s real is it? Who knows, I am miserable but genuinely it all seems a bit ridiculous

Baird hands out more penalties than Dan Andrews.
De Pasquale wins his first Supercar race. Macca bins it all on his own. An SVG and McLaughlin have shockers. An interesting start to the weekend. |

No point complaining about the tyres.

That race was fairly nuts - particularly for a Saturday race (where they normally play safely knowing there's still another day to go).
Few bleary eyes on Sunday morning I expect - but not from the usual cause in Darwin! Time Certain finish again after only a couple of SC interventions - bloody ridiculous but I think that we've all become so used to it now that no-one really complains. |

Do these circumstancial results take a bit a shine off getting a win/podium?

I certainly feel that way. You aren't really racing the whole field. Maybe they should just hand out trophies for the round results instead of individual races.

I complain about it. Every time. This time made worse by the huge efforts put in by everyone to even be there racing. |

Very boring weekend to be honest.
Glad I have other motorsport interests next weekend to keep me away. |

Maybe it's just me but I rather thought that these mixed up tyre strategies had made for some interesting races so far, at least we occasionally get a result that isn't led by DJR or Red Bull cars. Watching from the UK it makes a pleasant change from the panel bashing antics that is the BTCC. I'm somewhat surprised by the attendance of spectators at Darwin and the disregard to social distancing on the terraces; no face masks in the pits either? Is the Northern Territory virus free?

Pretty much so.... Quarter of a million people in just under 1.4 million sq. klms. About 0.2 people per sq. klm. (England is 432 people / sq klm.)
NT have had 34 Covid-19 cases in total.... all recovered, so no 'active' cases currently. |

So are we now at the mid season part of the Season, can we have a mid season scorecard for the various performers?
