Series Points
Nice effort by Mr Lowndes, absolutely caned those soft tyres for fastest lap, and ultimately the win!
Wonder who will pilot #51 at Townsville...

Matters arising from Qualifying for Race 12:
Following an investigation and an admission by Michael Patrizi Car #91 that he had driven in a careless manner, contact on Car #888 Craig Lowndes, the Stewards imposed the penalty of the loss of 37 Championship Points.

Errrr... 37 points? Is that like a penalty-and-a-half?
Mr Patrizi seems to be in the thick of some bump and runs... not all seem to be penalised..

Maybe someone who can bring it back in relatively pristine condition.

Even after watching a replay of the
incident today, i think he was hard done
by.
I thought Winterbottoms move over to the
left on Caruso when coming out of the
pits was unnecessary ?
Great drive by Caruso and DJR where are
you ?
Will found out today that having a
teammate battling against him for the
championship may hinder either/both of
them before the years out with FPR's
double stacking today.

its interesting that 1st 2nd and 4th didnt pit at that time.
I think FPR made an error in bringing both cars in, Would have been better to have a bet each way and get them off the same sequence

Really enjoyed the races- mostly clean, hard and professional driving.
And to watch fpr have the top 3 grid spots twice in a weekend and still
not get a win........pure gold.
The "thanks for making up the numbers" award goes to djr.
Jim Beam is not getting value for money there........
What ever they're paying, it's too much.

As a counter to that, 888 left both cars out, on a similar strategy, and took home a 1-2...
There is no question the FPR trio is quick over a single lap... but the strategy guys are relying on some maths with holes in it... and/or their pilots push their green tyres too hard too early so their choices are compromised.

Pushing the greens too early didn't seem
to bother CL ?

It certainly compromised Mr Reynolds' Saturday adventures... a lap in the '10's then nothing...

so after watching the telecast of Darwin, something has stuck in my head. What was the difference between David Russell Vs Jason Bright at the last corner in Race 2, resulting in Russell in the wall, and Mark Skaife Vs Russell Ingall at Eastern Creek all those years ago resulting in Skaife in the wall, especially considering the comments made by our Commish on the tele in Darwin that it was all David Russell's fault?

VERY big difference, Rusty clearly turned the car into Skaife, where Russell was driving directly into Brighty who was already at the edge of the track, and although we had no incar footage, I reckon Brighty's front wheels were straight!

the only difference was that now you have to leave racing room, you cant just force people off the track like skaife did
