Agreed,
However Jamie has often shown an ability to fightback from a poor qualifying, balanced of course by mid pack dramas and FPR pit stuff ups

Big shunt between #34 and #22.

Mr Courtney doesn't look well. Full credit to Mr Premat for pulling him out of the car.

Skaife said that the smile was off CL's face and that some are unhappy with the bump and run tactics going on.
Maybe i missed it, but what did Skaife say that gave you that conclusion ?

Skaife and Craig were the master of the bump and run. Even this year Craig has used it Didnt seem to matter then

funny also that when the bump happend Craig was off the racing line

Agreed. They pussyfoot around too much.

One would think they're taking into consideration the state of play in the championship at the final race, before handing out a penalty.

He pretty much copped the second heaviest part of the car in that very vulnerable area of the driver's door.

But that might be my Holden bias - hence why race control should make a decision for once.

Lots of tyre failures must be a concern.

Fair enough. I couldn't see a clear shot of how much impact there was from the so called Frosty bump and run.

Well done GT.

Happy to see JC was OK, man that was a big hit & could have been a lot worse!

I must say i still think this half time break is a crock of **** and is one of the stupidest ideas they have ever come up with. Get rid of it.

how do you draw a conclusion on any of those incidents though?

None of them have clear footage.

I reckon there is nothing in any of the incidents,.although maybe with the Giz and Will but its not clear from what we have seen on TV which is why they have to wait and get the in car footage

its gone for next year

Im interested in why you dont like it though, from a spectator point of view its a great thing. Two starts and the guys get to freshen up there case which makes for better racing over the length of the race
