Wooo, Tander. :D

Great run by both DJR Falcon's too, good to see. đź‘Ť

I don't really like Tander but he deserved that one, he drove away from the field. Great job from Alex Davidson and Blachard as well.
 
Frosty is crazy. About Roland Dane: " He always whinges (pause). He should be at the ashes not racing." :eek:

Not sure what that means (:lol:) but it was still an "ohhhhhh" moment from me. :p

I'm guessing a whinging pom reference? :lol:!

Just on that too. V8's on one channel, the cricket on another. What a fantastic way to spend a lazy saturday afternoon.
 
Whincup showed Winterbottom how to complete a last lap move without being a total idiot
 
Caruso capitalised as well. I dont know what happened to Holdsworth. Maybe his tire pressures were low. Well, onto tomorrow. More surprises.
 
Saw a reply of the Premat/ Courtney incident - scary impact. Unless there was fire, I would have preferred Premat left him in the car.

I understand that feeling. But I think it says a lot about Premat's character that he helped Courtney out. Got some serious respect for him after that. đź‘Ť

Stewards determined that the Lowndes / Winterbottom incident was just that, a racing incident. Well good 'ol Red Bull Racing is protesting the decision. :rolleyes:
 
Amazing qualifying result for BJR, all three cars in the top ten. Coulthard & Bright on the front row and Wall starting 7th. Caruso the fastest Nissan, 12th and Holdsworth is the first of the Merc's back in 20th. :crazy:

Good. So silly to protest. I wonder what Roland said when Whincup contacted Moffat.

Let's just give the 🤬 trophy to Whincup why don't we.
 
Yeah. Sick of it. Good racing though. Awesome circuit. Cheeseburger does it again.

Not if Lowndes has any say in it, what a race by him! Although the whinging about Mostert was a bit pathetic, there was nothing wrong there.
 
Mostert was quick. As Giz said, he blocked Chaz the whole race. Todd Kelly had bad restart. Such a big gap

TCM is up shortly.
 
This race is looking more of the same as the first. Hoping that Frosty would be able to keep pace with Whincup, but it doesn't look like it at the moment.
 
The stream on my tablet, working flawless up to this race, froze like 2 seconds before the start. :crazy:

By the time I got the stream back, I see Red Bull 1-2 and thought about turning the damn thing off.
 
Nice. Write this weekend off for Erebus. Phillip Islamd might have to add some fencing at the section. If that tyre hit anyone it would be game over. The fencing is real low there. Hope it didnt hit one of the cars in that parking area.

The Nissans are going real good with speed.

Frosty should have a go at the restart.

Expected so much from Erebus this weekend, thought that the high sections of the Island would have really suited the Merc's. Nissan's performance however has been a pleasant surprise.

And such a shame Ingall's race had to end that way. Real pity for Mostert too.

Wow, that was quite a race. Can't believe the amount of times they went though turn 1 3-wide!

Good pace from the Nissans, would have had 3 in the top 10 if Caruso's steering didn't break. Also a good race by Coulthard, awesome 3-wide pass on Van Gisbergen and Will.

Im glad BJR salvaged good positions this race. Definitely good high speed racing. Only thing is, the weekends are over so quick. We need longer races.
 
Yeah 2 longer races is better than 3 short ones. I miss the 2 races per weekend with pit stops format.

Curious to know why? They weren't calling a safety car and the marshalls weren't exactly moving to help.`

Neck/back injuries is the reason I would assume. Granted people don't always react with that thinking in mind at the time.

I'm just going on based on why he didn't want Alex to help him out. I mean it wasn't as if JC wasn't already coming out, he just offered a hand to kind of help. I didn't see the wreck til later since I was at work but never saw the issue with what happened.

I've never seen a crash like that in my life, it was interesting to say the least.
