Hey newbie.

Motor board is good enough that it doesn't need a mod.

Have another think about your responses.

Just saying..

You know what your right … could have worded better … l’ll take it on board

 

[Antzzz]

Yeah we’re better than the nuffs on the Supercars Facebook page.

They made the right call to rescind the penalty since he clearly lifted before the line.

The second penalty was well deserved obviously. Like SVG said that guy did really well to get the nut on. You’d prefer a penalty than a loose wheel.

Had a think about my response and I take it back … apologies for that

I'm in 2 minds as to whether they should have rescinded it..... And no it's not due to it being SVG.

On one hand you aren't meant to lift and Anton did, albeit for a minimal time. On the other, those conditions were very dangerous and it probably did result in SVG going off the track.

Would be very interesting to see who else lifted.

I think if Anton lifted before the line then it was too early even for the conditions.
I wonder if Davison closed in on ADP as well.

All g. Didn’t take offense nor did I report.

Timed Certainty has to be one of the worst concepts in world sport... Just cut into the post-race wrap-up/interview if it's a TV timing thing and then otherwise just stream it until it's finished. Obviously you can only race until a certain point, but that point is way too close to a standard safety-car affected race and it's usually the most interesting races that actually get to the designated point anyway.

Yeah would’ve been good to see Chaz have a crack at the lead.

It's just so dumb. When's live on 7 I can understand it more(still annoying) but this was a Foxtel only event, there is no reason for it at all.

People pay to see a full race, they should get it at all cost's bar safety.

Start the race 30mins earlier. Bizarre

The other thing that irks me and screams amateur hour is that it took SVG complaining about lifting for Race Control to check this. Surely you do that before applying the penalty? Supercars like to make up the rules on the run though.

But that would make too much sense.

Not only Supercars who make up rules on the run.
F1 are famous for it.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Yeah, but Michael Masi is a former supercars steward.

At least DJR made the race interesting yesterday forcing ADP to pass both WHI and SVG with fresh tyres haha

 

[k31th]

Cracking racing between DAV/MOS/WHI/SVG (yes I know I'm behind live)... that was some slick racing in race 27.

Jeeeez Whincup won’t be popular when he gets back to the pits Could’ve very easily had a 1,2.

His team I guess

Interesting how he’ll go next year if a driver doesn’t follow team orders

 

[BomberFan355]

Good on JW for racing hard. Wrapped for Brown to finally get that W!

 

[k31th]

Great racing from Will Brown to hold off the Red Bull team there

 

[Jezzza]

A couple of dodgy pitstops may have cost him a win in the past couple of weeks so really stoked for Brown!

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Turned it on today. Good to see.

I would’ve loved to be a fly on the wall at debrief after Race 28 yesterday. I can just imagine what Whincup decided after SVG bumps him, apologises, then bumps him again. Whincup’s car grew elbows on it after that shit SVG tried to pull on him. Great stuff and my hate for Whincup diminished after seeing that.
