What’s the go with putting 140L in but you’re allowed to fill up the breather? That’s hardly putting 140L in.
It is but it isn't. Another one of those rules teams exploit because the stewards are too dumb to close the loophole.

Nothing against SVG... well a little for his NZ performance but damn I hate the entire redbull setup. Arrogant campaigners. shootout big. Bloody awesome to see Fabs fence whincup as well and not just fold and let him past.

Says in the rules that the car must be earthed while fueling but doesn't say what the penalty would be. It's a team error not a driver so probably a fine would be efficient.
Pitstop infringements are a drive through penalty, but there is no way they've got the stones to do it.

Dutton going the "we timed it to perfection" line...... you didnt Mark, but dont worry you wont be punished.

As far as i can read the rules contradict themselves, they say if the car is dropped while refueling the vehicle is to be lifted again, the fuel hose was clearly disconnected around the time the car hit the ground (maybe milliseconds after) so why would they jack the thing back up?
But it says something about the vehicle is not to be in motion, well it clearly didn't move forwards with the fuel hose connected however it was dropped.

That was poor, Whincup is one of the fairest drivers around, at least he knows where the line is for tomorrow.

Lol he really isn't, he never has been.

Coulthard was returning serve for the corner before.

Any examples?
The corner before where he put coulthard into the fence you mean?
Rubbing is fine left lock on a right hand bend isnt.
Left lock?? Now you're just seeing things you want to see.

JW hung on the outside where there was no room and he got punished for it, much like he did with Frosty at Bathurst a few years back.

Baird doesn't usually hesitate to throw a penalty out, he didn't in this case.

Left lock
There should be plenty of room there.

Looks like they’ve found SVG guilty and will reconvene in the morning.
Not the way things should be played out.
But eh happy for Scotty to win it.
T8 have appealed that's why they meet tomorrow.

Can only see it being a fine, they wouldnt have the balls to give the driver a penalty. Last year dragged out far too long with the Stewards failing to admit fault for the pit lane speeding.

Watch it slow mo, definitely left lock, maybe oversteer but he ****** up.
Oversteer isnt a deliberate move as you were insinuating. Fabs ran his normal line through the corner

Whatever happens the other side will appeal surely a decision can’t be made in a day.
Can they fine a driver for a team mistake?
