Damn, they pulled that Safety Car trigger too quick.

Damn, they pulled that Safety Car trigger too quick.

I know right, it should have turned its lights off, raced a lap and parked up

 

[Spacegoat]

This could be a cracking final 15 laps.

 

[Nismonath5]

Oh god no Fabian...

 

[05XR8]

WHAT THEEE HELL!

 

[05XR8]

That redressing thing... Just hand out 5 second penalties or something.


Just stop the race now, with this time certain crap.

 

[Spacegoat]

Apparently Bathurst last year didn't teach them anything. Something needs to be done about the re-dress rule. That was only ever going to end one way.

 

[Nismonath5]

In some cases, re-dressing can be the better option, but not when doing it holds up half a field of cars on one of the fastest tracks in the country!

 

[LumpiestFish]

Two cameramen missed the accident, but luckily an on board camera caught it. Good thing it did catch it or else I would’ve had no clue wtf just happened lol.

 

[05XR8]

Bright might make a move

 

[Cap'n Jack]

Ah c’mon, can they really not complete the final few laps?

 

[Nismonath5]

No, because Supercars logic..

Also trust Gizzy to go all out with the burnout. Remembering he has to do another race tomorrow with that engine, gearbox, etc!

 

[Spacegoat]

No, because Supercars logic..

Five laps. They couldn't fit five laps in? Ridiculous.

In this era of 'Time Certain Finish' BS, just do away with the lap count & make the races one lap past whatever time they want to call it quits.

Anything else is nothing short of an insult to the educated.

 

[Nismonath5]

I'll bet Fabs' Falcon is being stripped as we speak..

I second that.

Looks like the left hand corner looks took most of the damage.

Has anyone got a video of Coulthard's crash, I can't find it anywhere.

Would be keen to see one too!

Also, Jason Bargwana's helped out with the repairs by sourcing a roof panel for the Falcon. Hope to see it out later today!

@LumpiestFish mentioned there was some in-car footage but I haven't seen anything. Looks like all the cameras on that part of the track missed it for some reason.

Hope to see it out later today!

Just caught a quick glimpse in the recap this morning. They got a shot of him flipping from the rear camera of a passing car. HAven't seen a video posted yet.

 

[Litening1]

That was huge. Good to see them both walk away

 

[05XR8]

Yeah. The slow-mo looked crazy.

 

[05XR8]

Kind of refreshing to see an Altima and Camry, racing at the front.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Supercars posted an on-board this morning.

They have to revert back to drive throughs. Once again, a redress has caused a major accident and it's unfair for all parties involved.

 

[LumpiestFish]

An onboard of David Reynolds would be good to see as his car was facing Coulthards the entire time.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

So it looks like Fabian was hit.

*sigh* SuperView doing SuperView things...

For qualifying? I totally missed it, was watching stuff on YouTube and spaced that it was on.
