Did he " open the wheel " so much as " hang him out " ?

 

[Punchy Bassett]

haha SVG deliberately missing the apex to prevent the pass on the outside by Randle

Maybe Randle shouldn't have tried to go the long way

basically the same thing

Not sure what your point here is... he shouldn't try to race? he shouldn't get right up alongside his opponent because he MIGHT not take the racing line?

Point is don't cry when he's hung out to dry.

The drivers rules are if your opponent is alongside you, you must leave racing room.

Just like De Pasquale yesterday then

Correct, if Brown had've been far enough alongside.

Hahaha righto

so strange for SVG to be double-stacking...

 

[Magma]

is svg feeling something wrong or something? quite strange

 

[k31th]

Brodie trying to brake too late there; cost him 2 spots.

 

[k31th]

yikes, Heimgartner nipping the corner of Mostert coming into 8 and Mostert just barely misses the wall on the outside of 8... crazy stuff

 

[NSWCROW]

heck what a snorefest

 

[k31th]

quality race from Matt Payne to finish off the 2023 season.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Doubt they'll find anything wrong with the 97 other than a strained care factor.

How many times did they talk to Giz after he bagged the series ?

Only when he was forced into media stuff after a race win etc, I believe... and a little bit about his America trip and the stuff about him leaving the series after this year.

Good to see a first time winner get up. 10 different race winners is the most in a long time.
Hopefully the wind tunnel testing sorts out the parity issue because it's clear now it's swung too far the other way.

That's because it was never a Ford vs Chevy parity issue to begin with.

I can't believe the HQ driver did it.

 

[largebus]

How about DJR though, in three years they gone from champions to barely the 3rd best Ford outfit despite being the Gen 3 homologation team. Hiring a failed AFL coach like David Noble as CEO is really working wonders for them.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Think Payne will be Kostecki's main rival next year. Thomas Randle will be good as well.

Yes, I can't believe Supercars are spending millions on testing when there was never an issue...

In other news, the V8 Slueth Race Control Podcast is really good, talks with Craig Baird about all the decisions that had to be made and how they came them. Also interesting that he talks to Supercars about issues that should be fixed with the cars, like the wheel interlocking issue.
