There is a story floating around that #55's major sponsor is more than not amused....

I presume that V8sc will be donating the 25k to charity .
Imagine the outrage if they were seen to be profiting from sexism . |

Maybe she spend a day with either of the female drivers to see how 'light' the sport is. |

I thought it was one of the funniest things I've ever heard in motorsport!
I'll give him $20 if he tacks on "And it's the best ride in town!" |

I am going to be slagged for saying this…
I don’t believe in excessive political correctness and I am not a fan or believer of stereotypes, but this thread and some of the opinions expressed are building a poor (and probably undeserved) portrait of Australia. Richard |

It is an interesting contract to see how it's OK for Lowndes to say he "cocked" and "buggered" up laps in Quali today, Pye can refer to the size and placement of Jamie's genitalia, Red Bull can tweet about Will Davison's bedroom prowess (or lack thereof) and receive zero dollar penalties, but it's straight to $25k for Reynolds.
Wonder if Harvey Norman had anything to do with it. |

I am going to nominate Carl Stefanovic for an academy award for his melodramatic portrayal of pussygate on the Today show yesterday!

The comments by Reynolds were in a totally different context and implication. The 888 comments are the kind that could have resulted in a similar fine as Reynolds received but like all things V8's - punishment and rule enforement must be inconsistentlyapplied at all times. |

Only you could turn this story into perceived manufacturer bias.

Don't tell our friend Richard Castro or it will only make his portrait of Australia even more dark & depressing.

It's a shame that some neanderthals here in Australia, like to wear their outdated, bonehead attitudes as a badge of honor. They're loud and proud of their lifestyle choices. I hope Reynolds can move on from his moment of madness. The guy is a talent, who'll just have to learn to shut his trap, and get on with what he does best..... He's not the first sports star to say something stupid, and he won't be the last. |
