2018 Liqui-Moly Bathurst 12HR - Race DiscussionSports Cars

[Pete05]

If this was a Bathurst 1000 it would’ve taken 7 Hours and 20 minutes. Which is a pretty long Bathurst 1000.

Funnily enough, the very first Bathurst to run to 1000km in 1973, had a race time of 7 hours, 20 minutes, 6.8 seconds.

That was pre Safety Car days off course.

 

[ScottPuss20]

Just received a 5 minute stop and hold for that dive in.

Justice is served then

 

[CodeRedR51]

Well since Nissan's motorsports programs are taking a quick nose dive into the oblivion and they decided to not show up this year, rooting for Porsche to take the victory.

 

[Northstar]

2nd place Audi smacked the wall hard.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Bad decision there.

 

[Cap'n Jack]

That was a rookie mistake, really. You just can’t go off line there at this point in the race, it’ll be too dirty at this point. He could’ve easily got past following The Dipper.

Man, MW is such a tease. Shows up, but never races on the mountain.

 

[Jezza819]

Mostert has been set on attack mode.

 

[Spacegoat]

Any chance of keeping Shea Adam in Aus for the Supercars coverage? We'll swap Riana Crehan for her, seems like a fair deal.

 

[05XR8]

We may see a 10 car race to the finish.

Sorry but Riana is nicer to look at.

 

[05XR8]

Frustration

 

[Jezza819]

Well that's the end of that. Why don't you wait until the straight?!?!

 

[CodeRedR51]

That's not gone well.

 

[jake2013guy]

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

 

[05XR8]

And Whincup just cruises to victory.... Better not happen.

 

[Pete05]

You've got to be kidding!

Did I miss something? Was the race on its last lap?
No, it's just amateur hour

When are these guys going to realise it's an ENDURANCE race?

 

[Spacegoat]

Sorry but Riana is nicer to look at.

Well, Shea's not half bad. She's just so much better at this pitlane interveiwing stuff.

And Whincup just cruises to victory....

Starting to get that feeling too.

Fingers the #74 Audi and at least one of the Porsche's can make it a good finish.

 

[05XR8]

Chaz should waited. 2hours to go.

 

[Tak[TEC]]

Don't understand Chaz doing that huge fan of him but that was just awful driving

 

[ColinNZ]

Yip, that one is on Chaz.

 

[05XR8]

Wish Barretts would hand over the mic.... to anyone.

 

[Pete05]

A date with Riana wouldn't last past the entree whereas Shea would make it to an invitation for 'coffee'

 

[Cap'n Jack]

Is anyone on fresh tyres?

 

[LumpiestFish]

It was a real SVG sorta move there by Chaz.

 

[05XR8]

Shea has improved with her interviews. Ain't the best, but at least she doesn't sound like she's talking in the North Pole(looking at you Will Davison's lady).

 

[Spacegoat]

but that was just awful driving

Really was. There was no need to be that agresive with two and half hours to go, epsecially in that part of the track.

A date with Riana would last past the entree whereas Shea would make it to an invitation for 'coffee'

Spoiler: gif

Edit: How many lose wheels is that now?

 

[Jezza819]

Safety car now would really help the #12 Porsche.

 

[jake2013guy]

Safety car now would really help the #12 Porsche.

Your theory is some Lamborghini's command.

 

[05XR8]

Anything can happen, but the #100 is pretty much back where it started the race. Quickest 2hours ahead.
