Will Barry’s boy’s still be leading the championship, or will T8 be leading by Sunday night?

A little bit of pressure on Will and Brodie.

Erebus are doing great.
Best protestors on the grid.

If the bloke had they tyres under him, and didn’t burn them off, he would not have been vulnerable to an overtake.

Wonder how Mr Ryan handled LP & the Enforcer after the Mike Imrie shunt?

The SVG penalty is setting a tough rule for themselves. Last lap with a guy parking his car [blocking] and trying to back a guy up to stop a run. The contact was not excessive. So from now on if you are in front, you can park on the inside line and slow up the following car, the following car can not make any contact. The data would be interesting? But they didn't even wait for that. Oh well Mustangs were fast late.

Enjoyable racing today despite the SVG vs Brown drama. Tend to side with Erebus here, looked like a good old push to pass from Van Gisbergen IMO.
Very disappointed about Waters, he had a good race and shame the result was not as good as could've been. Hopefully they rebound tomorrow although wonder how much patience Waters has with Tickford.
DJR's race was absolutely horrid, especially De Pasquale's pace was just dramatic but at least two Fords were fast today.
The title fight looks exciting.

In regard to the Waters penalty, what consideration is given to Broc perhaps overreacting and slowing unnecessarily?

Will we see drivers in the future tap the brake to slow as a car exits the pit 50 metres in front of them to trigger a penalty?

SVG Penalty was a joke.

Cam Waters penalty was a joke. No cars were hit.

The biggest joke was yellow flag for Reynolds going off and parking well away from the racing line and run offs! Artificial racing!

The reason SVG was pushing him was because Brown was off the gas. They do that to stop the following car from carrying speed off the corner. From now on you just sit behind the car and follow them to the flag. Watched a bit of motor following have you.

Need to see the data from both cars. I don’t think it was a typical bump n run. I imagine T8 will dispute the penalty - do we know if it was an in race penalty or post race penalty?

As for Feeney/Waters, the commentators said Broc braked and lost 10kph in the pit lane. But I don’t think Cam should have received a penalty. We’ve seen much worse lost time when everyone pits under SC and the pit lane is a shambles.

Alternately, punt the blocker hard and early, then jump away like a Jack rabbit to be 5s in front to keep your place.

I didn’t see much different to any other serious passing move, except the chasee was blocking and sitting in the middle of corners and slow out of them.

There seems to be a racing talent gulf in the category, some can drive fast cars really fast, while others have no good experience of carrying a grip less sick dog of a car.

So.. punt hard.. punt early… Jack rabbit.. go!

I thought we now allowed "Rubbin and Racing"
I guess bump and run not.

The two taps Shane gave Brown were nothing, you see more than that in the opening laps of every race. Brown looks like a little boy, and last night he acted like one. The fact is the lead car sets the terms of engagement. He can try and put in qualifying laps to the end and try and out pace the chasing car. If he can't do that he can give up his spot clean or he goes into full defensive mode. Defensive mode is he stops driving the racing line and drives to block any opportunities for the chasing car to make a pass. In doing so he forces the chasing driver into make an aggressive pass or just stay in behind. People see the chasing car trying to force passes, but don't see the lead car is no longer on the racing line and is positioning his car to block. The chasing car always gets the bad rap even though he has been forced into it. Brown showed no fight at all last night, he should ask his team mate to drop his pants for a moment to show him what a pair looks like as he has none. All mouth and no go. I don't know what Supercars are doing? They don't want to put on a show? Look at Perth with Kostecti and SVG going toe to toe, that was great TV. Are they not in the entertainment business? or are they trying to kill it.
As for Ryan, a guy of his age that hasn't yet mastered how to control his stupid mouth on live TV is a disgrace. At one time it was refreshing to have someone just say it how it is, that was a longtime ago. Someone needs to take him under their wing and suffocate him.
