Does he keep P1 or not?

And why is it taking so long. If they said that outside the yellow line was illegal, then it clearly was illegal. Although for me, I really hate this kind of silliness, the line could have been tighter to the wall in that section in the first place.

But according to Roland Dane if we complain about it we're "sore losers". Straight out of his mouth...
 
Not even 1 race in and they're already being shady, no doubt the stewards will let them get away with it. I'm done with this series for the year if no penalty happens, not keen on watching Red Bull be massive hypocrites while getting away with almost everything.
 
Should have given him the penalty right before he crossed the line. That'll learn 'em.
 
Funny how they can come with some decisions in a matter of seconds but apparently they've got to call a national inquiry to decide if SVG exceeded the track limits or not. Surely it shouldn't have taken this long?
 
I don't think RD and the stewards can agree on the amount of zeros on the cheque.
 
Man, the third to last place placer driver in the LMS Cup can barely keep ahead of one of the GT4 cars. :crazy:
 
No penalty confirmed, I'll see you guys next year
 
No action from the stewards. As expected .
 
Two hours to make that decision? Absolutely ridiculous.
 
What are the odds of a nice time certain finish to start the season?
 
Shane seems to be falling off the pace to a degree.
Also, watching that start again, absolute perfect launch on Courtney's part!
 
The #17 should have run long, for fresh tyres at the end. Seems like it'll be like last year or Courtney vs Giz.
 
Heimgartner is going to go into Turn 8 hard soon. He’s already had a hit big enough to bend the steering.
 
Why do they need a yellow line there anyway?

There's a big hard concrete wall that tells the dumbest of drivers what the penalty is if you hit it.

If they need a yellow line there, they may as well remove the ripple strip the cars ride over.
That's got the potential to cause more problems than a driver going close to the wall.

Yeah, SVG is going to have the shortest stop for fuel of the three. Fully expect him to him to run down JC and Scotty at the end.

Just saw the projection. Didn't know Scott took 76L. Still, I think Giz is quicker overall.
 
I was just about to say, they better not blame Whincup's slow pace on his crash. Oh well...

Definitely.

That was a bit awkward between Reynolds and Whincup.
 
Looks like Reynolds let Whincup back through.

Edit: No he didn’t. I read “Win” on the leaderboard and thought it was “Wincup” ahead of Reynolds. I need to work on my spelling.
 
Umm, safety car for debris, please.

Edit: some brave soul ran out and cleared it.
 
NASCAR-like safety car there, although I’m not really complaining tbh.
