2019 Virgin Australia Supercars ChampionshipTouring Cars

[Tak[TEC]]

It's just the first race for Christ Sake. If the Mustangs start to dominate the next few rounds, then the discussions shall start.

Exactly the same thing happened last year with the ZB Commodore. Only difference there was a 1-2 with Red Bull (Which probably would have happened with DJR in race 1 as well without the jumped start). People were calling for parity after one weekend and then DJR won the championship anyway.

Good pit by Chaz just before the Safety car.

WHY THE HELL WOULD RICK KELLY DO THAT!!!

 

[Jezza819]

What a cluster that was.

 

[Tak[TEC]]

That was absolutely Tickfords fault, but Kelly could have hit the brakes

 

[Spacegoat]

Utter chaos. That's got to be a massive penalty for both Chaz and Rick.

 

[ShiftingGears]

Kelly made that a lot worse than it should've been. He would've got the position back anyway.

 

[05XR8]

DID Fabs pit for more fuel again?

 

[CodeRedR51]

I'm putting that one on Rick.

 

[LumpiestFish]

It’ll be close, but we might be able to go full distance. One more SC and we definitely won’t.

 

[05XR8]

Waters might get this win with less fuel to take on. Just don't know why they pit Fabs again. Maybe he's got like 1 litre to put in.

 

[Tak[TEC]]

Kelly really doesn't seem to get that even if Tickford was at fault he would still be racing and ahead of Mostert if he just hit the brakes

Yeah he should’ve let the initial contact happen, and then back out of it straight after. The penalty would be on Mostert and Kelly could’ve continued with his day.

 

[Jezza819]

It's on now between Waters and McLaughlin.

 

[Tak[TEC]]

Shoutouts to Frosty for moving up 18 spots over the race so far

 

[05XR8]

DJRTP really messed up the #12. ANd just as I type that FAbs bins JAcobson.


Edit: 13 minutes left. Gonna be close!

 

[Tak[TEC]]

Supercars and time-certain races, name a more iconic duo

 

[05XR8]

Simona did pretty good to go one spot better than yesterday.

EDIT: Nice!

 

[LumpiestFish]

Tim Slade went completely under the radar. I kept seeing him in 4th and I assumed he was out of rhythm strategy wise.

 

[05XR8]

Lowndes this whole weekend

Really Roland??? ''Engineered to an advantage, that's what we have to deal with''

So in honor of Rolly's comment I've changed my avatar (but only for a couple of days)

I'll swap you CL for Kate Peck.

She annoys the 🤬 out of me

Aww, man. She's that bad? Must be, because you didn't add Matt White to that deal.

Oh and got an answer to my Fabs question. How the heck do you not fit the fuel nozzle to a car at the pit stop?

Hey, I'll throw in Matt White for free & you mean to tell me you don't have to suffer Peck on Foxtel?

Google some of her work & you'll understand my pain.

Looking back at the incident between Chaz Mostert and Rick Kelly; Rick really showed us his true colours (again). I didn’t notice this at first but he did actually brake for the initial contact, but the replays show him quickly letting off the brake and further plowing into Mostert’s car. The fact that he actually braked and then let off the brake showed intent to cause a collision to me.

Yeah it was really blatant. I'll have to make a similar avatar to my new RD one for him because of his actions when they were coming back into the pits.

On another note, I've saved the dummy picture. I'm positive Tim Edwards, Ryan Storey, Ryan Walkinshaw and a few others will be wearing it at some stage this season.

Rick Kelly

Only a Champion on paper.

Because he's a dick.

Your avatar is brilliant. It gave me a good laugh indeed.

 

[Pete05]

So apparently Chaz visited the KR pit & apologised to the paper Champion about the pitlane incident.
WTF

Can anyone try & explain to me what Chaz could’ve possibly done wrong and, why he would need to apologise?

There was no communication between Chaz and his pit crew. Chaz left his pitbox blind. Tickford admitted they were at fault, no question. That's the only reason why he apologized.

It was for the unsafe release part. Yesterday on the telecast he said he couldn't see, and wasn't told by the team if anyone was coming, so he just took off, which imo was a lack of team communication rather than a Chaz issue, but Chaz being Chaz he apologized.

Tim Edwards opinion of the incident was spot on. The unsafe release was on them but the cluster:censored: that ensued was on Rick.

... and what @05XR8 just said
