[V8SC10R05&06] Clipsal 500, Adelaide Parklands

A brave man or woman would bet against the 888 rollercoaster on the streets of Adelaide...

Will HRT recreate some kind of form and let Mr Tander skirt the front of the field on merit again, to offer competition to the new-to-Holden silver bullets?

Frosty to win?

The Giz, went 6 and 13 last year, but has shown this year he can run at the front, perhaps Jamie will have some competition.

Traffic. Safety cars. Steven Richards. Anything can happen...

It'll be Frosty for mine.

It's had to go past Whincup atm, but watch out for Courtney. Also Ingall he loves a street fight.

Would be odds on to end up in the wall, in 3 out of 4 appearances he has incurred enough damage to need to move to a spare car for the next event.

Okay, exhibition races out of the way and now time for the real round 1 at one of the best events on the calender.

Predictions

1st: Whincup

2nd: Daylight

3rd: either Frosty, Tander, Giz or Lowndes.

Fingers crossed SBR improve on the last 2 rounds.

Rick has won here before, and I wouldn't be at all surprised if he ends up on the podium at least, if not the top of it. Just gotta avoid the trouble magnets (you know the ones I mean, S Richards, T Kelly and *I hate to say it* Brighty).

Whincup
Winterbottom

But you would think HRT will get their act together for at least 1 or 2 events this year so they are the roughies.

It'll be SO good to watch it (nearly) live after the last two weekends! Looking forward to a great weekend's racing.

exactly and good to have them "home".

Whincup is in fine touch atm, SBR seem strong ditto Frosty, Rick seems to have abit of pace. i believe PMM will get stronger with 2 888 VE's in the stable, Courtney will be quick if he keeps it off the walls this year, will HRT find their mojo again???

the season starts now IMO.

As much as it hurts to type it and would hurt to see it, but I think The Giz will give Whincup a run for his money and possibly take one of the races.

Craig will have a better weekend, Winterbottom will have an average weekend, Rick will get some more podiums, Tander will have to start building his own bridge to get over his slump, Steve Richards future will further be questioned and Skaife will further his chances of winning an endurance race with T8 by doing another 5 laps in a Fujitsu GRM Commodore.

i'm wondering when FPR will get their act together and have BPB actually take someone out that will then benefit Frosty!!

In no particular order my top 5
Frosty
JC
Whincup

Lets say unlikely:

Quote:
“The rules are the rules, and they say your drivers can’t have laps other than what is stipulated in the regulations. It’s pretty simple – very open and shut,” said Fujitsu Racing’s team owner Garry Rogers.

“I understand the necessity of the promotion for television, but they’ve got Mark Larkham and Neil Crompton as commentators who are both very capable drivers. I can see the promotion opportunities for this, and I think we should do more of that for the business, but you can’t have one set of rules applied to one group, and another set applied to another group.

“Clearly he shouldn’t be able to get laps – not anymore than anyone else should, and that’s the rules. The fact is, no driver who is competing in the championship should be allowed to do anymore miles than anyone else, regardless of what car they are driving.”

Well said Garry. Hope he brings the 200+ watches he bought from Bahrain - will make a very tidy profit indeed. Hope to see Leethal and Robbo inside the Top 10 in Adelaide, would love to see Ricko or W-Davo take the top step if it ain't one of the Fujitsu boys.
Only major drama (or maybe Frosty???) will stop JW taking his 5th and 6th wins of the season.
