Yeah...What hugely lop sided contest next year will be going on these results.
I would even go so far as to say this looks like the death of V8 Supercars

R1

Interesting to see the #25 with its new engineer at the pointy end again!

What was all the oil on the rear bumper of Mr Whincup's car? Everyone was whinging about oil everywhere, but did he leak some also?

Whincup was leaking oil. You could see it on Courtneys windscreen. Why they didn't pull Whincup in is beyond me.

Showing some of what we have been waiting for I would suspect!

Good to see!


I was a little surprised with the excess reaction to the water leaking from the PCR car, when two of the big guns managed to dump a heap of oil, water evaporates.

My guess would be the pray nozzle might have detached from the water hose.

Good way of not only keeping the brakes cool, but the tires as well.

What? You really think they would spray water on the tyres during the race? You haven't thought that one through, have you?.........

Brake cooling water would not normally have Coolant or anti freeze in it.

Separate to the Engine cooling system.

wasn't to fussed about the water myself yeah it was abit of water but it's not oil and for that ammount isn't going to make someone spear off especially in that heat. however i was worried about the oil and especcially GT re-entering the track after he know the whole length of the front straight aswell as spearing himself off that he was dumping a ****load of oil. also i have a feeling Whincup was dumping abit of oil to and i'm surprised more wasn't mentioned of this by the commentry team especially given how his teammate exited the race but they seemed fixated on Couthards little bit of water.
