Thanks for that. So not a release at all but a Speedcafe story (although sometimes they can be quite similar) and the quoted comment not from Mr Warburton but from whomever wrote the Speedcafe article. Mr Warburton did allude to it though in one of his quoted comments. As you say, a bit of spin, as we have seen from Supercars, NRL, AFL, Cricket, CAMS, Political parties, the list goes on - most organisations spin their achievements whenever they get the chance, Mr Warburton as a “former” would be highly unlikely to be negative about an event he championed. |

There has been discussion over the size of the crowd for the recent Supercars races at Eastern Creek.
Another way is to look at the views on Natsoft. These were 20,000 for the Supercars meeting. Overshadowing this was the Natsoft views for the State Championship meeting at Mallala on the same weekend. This was over 2,700,000 as below: http://racing.natsoft.com.au/results/#1 |

Means jack. There are numerous ways to get updates in timing and results for Supercars including Speedcafe, the official Supercars site, Foxsports and social media. Natsoft numbers would account for a percentage of those.
And if they got 2.7 million hits for a state meeting, they seriously need to look at selling advertising on that page... |

Was for the Saturday only. Sunday numbers were normal-ish for that kind of event.
I suspect there may have been a malicious attack on the Natsoft website. Yeah, yeah, sounds far-fetched, but it looks very bloody obvious that something wasn't right. Even the Bathurst 1000 doesn't generate that kind of traffic. |

Having said that, 2.7 million "views" is excessive and represents a spike that indicates something weird was going on at that race meeting (previous SA State Round at Mallala this year had 7,500 odd views). The next highest number of views for any race meeting in any state in 2018 on Natsoft was the Phillip Island Classic at 44,000. Clearly there's something that has either gone wrong with the system or caused a vast number of repeat "views" for that particular race meeting. Sorry but it's clearly a flawed data source on which to base the point you're trying to make. |

Otherwise it simply looks like a nonsensical post that needs correcting, or an attempt to troll or cause argument. |
