Brave Nope. Just described it. White is pro, blue pro am, yellow silver class ( ams on the way to pro), green is invitational.
GassyHaggis Brave The discussion there about the Pro cars blows that out the water now. 😂 Who knows what it was.
Brave GassyHaggis This?? https://www.supercars.com/news/championship/bathurst-debut-for-in-car-warning-lights/ Edit: lol it’s really bugging me now
Brave I love the format. No mandatory amount of fuel stops and fairly flexible driver time requirements. It means it’s a flat out race for 12 hours. They’re really on it.
GassyHaggis It’s bad enough on the M8 heading to Glasgow in the morning with the sun that low, frightening to see it at Mount Panorama with that amount of welly they are giving it.
Brave I can fanboy about Chaz Mostert though. I starting watching a bit of Supercars since the pandemic started and he’s a demon round Bathurst. Set the lap record last year iirc. He’s throwing that thing around now that tires have warmed up.
Brave Safety. That’ll have an interesting impact. Edit: and Valentino Rossi is in. Didn’t know he was doing this race. 🙂
GassyHaggis Brave yes that is a pleasant surprise(re Rossi). Also, I’ve been holding off from geeking out about Gounon. Boy is a legend.
Brave I wish they hadn’t shown the commentary box. That is not the face I had in my head. I hate voice/face mismatch 😄
GassyHaggis Brave haha. Was expecting Hindy with seeing him over all the years at LeMans and from Radio LeMans.
GassyHaggis Gounon has been reeling in the guys in front steadily. Pumping in times close to the fastest lap this year consistently. Chuffed to see Rossi still in third although falling back a bit now.
Brave GassyHaggis Is he three seconds faster than Jamie Whincup?? Seven time V8 Supercars champ? Around Bathurst. That’s insane
GassyHaggis Yup. Absolutely mental. Cat amongst the pigeons now though. Could be game on if they all stop with the yellow and he does another stint.
Brave GassyHaggis typically I missed it. Just a five minute break and it all kicks off. Just got back to watching on my iPad and Rachel says it looked like a crash? Edit. Ok. Just seen the replay
GassyHaggis Brave Yeah just looked like a clumsy move that wouldn’t be an issue on most European circuits but here (like most of the Formula E races) means a full course yellow and safety car.
