Is any of this supposed to mean something?

I was referencing Natalie and Chilli Lowndes.

Sadly he is a public figure and she is using that to her advantage in mind games, whether or not the accusation is true or not, it isn't really any of her business, and she shows her lack of class by doing this publicly.

Perhaps if she had changed back to her maiden name, perhaps it would look less like she's still riding his coattails, and trying to remain relevant?

Weirdly I made a mistake:

I meant to say it isn't any of OUR business

Seems very odd.

I bet he didn't even know they were coming.

Parent using the kid as a pawn in the game much?

THIS, airing brings it to another sour level.

Life's a never-ending caravanning holiday?

Put yourself in his new wife's shoes for a minute; would you marry someone who treats his kids the way it has been alleged?

For most rational people, that'd be a bit of a dealbreaker.

I have a serious problem with the "testimony" of someone who clearly has an axe to grind - you and I have no way to know what is and isn't true.

You might want to ask the question of why a mother might take her child into a rival's team bunker without notice and then wonder why said child's father didn't come and spend some quality time... While he was at a race weekend and media interest in his retirement was stupidly high?

Umai Naa · 11 Jul 2018, 02:15 (Ref:3835986)

Agreed. The whole thing is a total mess that does nothing positive for the kids.

It really shouldn't be out in the open.

Seems to be a lot divorcing and separating in the Supercars paddock in recent times...

Trev Campbell · 11 Jul 2018, 03:07 (Ref:3835992)

Might also be a little upset the gravy train might be about to pull into the station for a final stop.

Forda · 11 Jul 2018, 04:12 (Ref:3835994)

Reckon you're on the money there.

SDS tipped for Triple Eight move.

Multiple sources told Speedcafe.com over the Watpac Townsville 400 weekend that it is already a done deal, although there has been no word from the driver or Triple Eight on the matter.

Hopefully not, but if true, then she won't have any excuses for not being top 7 every race.

WTF

If this is true, then Lowndes can be added to the list of factory Holden drivers who have exited in similar circumstances - and for the second time too.

Did Lowndes know that he was retiring in the days leading up to Townsville? Maybe thats why he didn't let his kids know, because he didn't know himself?

Great comment, However I guess he and they are on Mobile ?

Kingair · 12 Jul 2018, 08:11 (Ref:3836235)

It all seems a bit strange, looking at the body language of Mr Lowndes and Mr Dane at the press announcement.

When did Mr Crompton, do his interview with Mr Lowndes?

Wonder if Mr Lowndes got tapped on the shoulder first thing Thursday morning, and told this is what is happening?

Might be easier to solve the Harold Holt mystery!
