I guess at some point we're going to lose Sandown, and Winton seems to be perennially a bit vulnerable. |

Can't help thinking that one might at least partially cannibalise the other. Finding a suitable venue for the 500 post Sandown will be important though and as a facility, from what we've seen the bend would be good, as would one or two other tracks - whichever the location, in my view it would be better to pick the venue and stick to it so some tradition is built. |

They'll definitely be racing at Sandown until 2019, depending on an FIA safety inspection after this year's event.
Tailem Bend however is expected to be complete in January of next year, and they are expecting a deal to have a Supercars round for the next season so it seems certain that in 2019 if not next year that the two tracks will both have rounds in the same season. |

Sadly i don't think a million signatures on that petition will do much
It's like Oran Park, the ending has been mooted for ages and is now just around the corner And just like Oran Park, nothing is there to replace it.... |

I'm just glad I lived in a time where I could watch racing at Amaroo Park, Oran Park and Calder Park and so on, awesome circuits all missed!

*IF* they could perform like a van Gisbergen or McLaughlin they would still get their old salary (as negotiated back when they were performing at that level), but either due to equipment or driving talent they no long are making those kinds of performances and hence salary expectations must be adjusted, especially with less sponsor revenue about the place... |

Two of Victoria's 4 race meetings (PI, Sandown, Albert Park & Winton) happen in close proximity to Melbourne itself, with Albert Park right in the centre of town, just like the Adelaide Parklands circuit
In NSW, there is only one near Sydney.. I am still waiting for Kalgoorlie 500... |

No Customer Cars From DJRTP
