That's cause it is haha, they've had CGI billboards for a few years now. There are few that loom really shit, especially the ones at Forrest Elbow.
There's two on turn two. Carsales and something else (which look shit, because when the camera switches to the font of the car the actual billboards can be seen in the background), one at the dipper with a fake looking bracket around it which toggles between stabilo highlighters and HINO (why?), and the two in the trees at forest elbow.

There's also some in the grass at the chase. It's just for the broadcaster to make more money form sponsors, as the advertisements can be changed, with more companies putting more money in. They look much better than what what they did when originally introduced, but still not as good as proper signs. The look of the big sponsor walls at U.S street circuits look great, as does the old images of large amounts of billboards at the old circuits.

Really good interview on ten news with Winlotsofcups. rekons over the top of the mountain, with 600 hp and new tires is scary but fun.

Pound for pound he's the best racing car driver I've seen since the late seventies, that's not from Brazil. I never liked him for a long time, typical ford flog. But he just keeps producing. Runs the gauntlet every time he gets in.

Feel the same, but if you take his personality out of the discussion, he is a real class act.

To be honest ive never really got what people say about his personality. He's not as prominent in the media and on social media as some drivers, but he doesn't seem to be a bad bloke. Those that call him 'Whingecup' while thinking that nickname is the best thing since sliced bread are joking themselves though, since he's never really had a history of whinging.

I can't say I'm a fan though, since it does get quite boring when he goes on his winning streaks.

I think the bolded bit is why some people don't like him, maybe a bit of tall poppy syndrome. Also add that he changed manufactures (not all his own doing) and he put people off.
 
Whincup barracks for Hawthorn. So you know he's not a good bloke.

What. You mean, like all the racing drivers, from all the series, around the world, since the 70s?

How many times do you think we will see the safety car come out on Sunday?

Being totally unrealistic, hopefully none. Why can't they have yellow flags waiving and communicate the info over the radios when there is a crash that doesn't cause a major disruption? I will tell you why. Everyone likes a close race. Unfortunately, legendary results of the past aren't possible thanks to the legal eagles and insurance companies who control the sport. All sports actually. Not to mention the media who also have a role to play in all of this. Sometimes you think some of the drivers are paid to deliberately crash at around the 150 lap mark. Especially if it isn't close.
 
Say if Formula 1 legends, the late Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost are co-drivers at the Bathurst 1000, knowing their history when they drove for Ferrari. How will the Senna-Prost partnership pan out at Mount Panorama?

At their peak at the time or at their peak now?

In the group A cars, they'd have won easily. Nowadays with v8sc seemingly being a specialist class where foreign drivers say the cars don't behave like normal racing cars. I'd say whatever Matthias Ekstrom and Andy Priaulx did, they'd do a chunk better. I'd also say they'd shit in the 12hr.
