WHO WAS COMPLAINING THIS WAS BORING?! BLOODY HELL!

 

[imadodgyumpire]

This is boring. I haven’t seen one thing happen all night!

 

[Jatz]

The GIS! I don’t even like him but this is ******* brilliant!

 

[Jatz]

JW!

The racing has been brilliant tonight. Several battles that have been riveting.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Whincup won? That’s part of Mick’s Multi on The Front Bar.

It was, it changed, me like

 

[Reign Man]

What a devastating result for Shell. Qualy 1 and 2 with RBR 3 and 5.
RBR come 1 and 2 and Shell 3 and 10. No crashes, just outraced.

 

[Jatz]

Big tick from me. Think the event has been fantastic. Just need to improve the lighting in some areas but outside of that, I think it’s brilliant.

 

[Jatz]

And yeah, great for the championship as well.

Form finish is a nice touch haha.

 

[Reign Man]

How embarrassing for the Andretti team. Their wheels literally fell off.

Don’t start

 

[Jatz]

The Shell strategy was the reason they lost that. Had blinkers on with Lowndes, they didn’t need to pit at the same time as him. For such a good team, was a very odd mistake from them.

 

[Reign Man]

Those trophies are ridiculous

 

[Reign Man]

Impressive drive by Chaz, he's a future series champion.

Maybe but the last few rounds has seen the RBR team having stronger cars at the finish. It also doesn’t help that Fabian is surrendering positions so meekly. Scotty was under extreme pressure for the last 12 laps or more from Roland Dane’s chargers!

Unless I've missed something, the sole reason for the quicker RBR cars were the tyres.

I might be being a bit harsh as the safety car did bring them closer than they otherwise would have been. Still Think the strategy was really poor though.

You're absolutely right about FC. It boggles the mind how he got resigned.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Sometimes people have a down year . They need time to get out of that rut .

 

[Jatz]

In regards to Coulthard? Seems more than a rough year.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Coulthard has been a 3rd, maybe 2nd tier driver for 15 years driving for the mid-rear teams. He's accumulated a lot of bad habits and not had to deal with driving the best car. There's a higher level of accountability driving the best car, and he's not used to it and seeing all his weaknesses exposed that were hidden when driving for the smaller teams. He was good last year, but would now be realising that last year should be a quiet season. It's not easy to elevate yourself to a premier driver when driving at that level is a black art .

It's the problem Rosberg had in 14 against Hamilton, when he was arguably better than him in 13.

Next track over 7km long ?

 

[hey shorty]

Next track over 7km long ?

The full track is, I think the Supercars are using a 4.5km abbreviation.

 

[MatthewB]

The full track is, I think the Supercars are using a 4.5km abbreviation.

4.95km long, the 7.7km is for GT and endurance events

 

[FR0GGY]

So anyone going to the bend?

 

[hey shorty]

I'll be heading up on Friday.

 

[Shaxx Attaxx]

Yeah thinking of heading down on the Saturday for a look. Just GA tickets
