How the HELL can you go slow on wet grass? Oh.. AND out of control?!!

Well Supercars is under control of the FIA.
So its an FIA rule that you cant rejoin unsafely and must have vehicle under control.
Circa Vettel at canada.

My issue is Skaife saying what he said. The kid made a mistake, but on a slick tyre on wet grass, how is any driver rookie or veteran, going to gain control of a car, again on wet grass and mud? The only option at that moment, was to hang on for dear life. That or if he had a chance, aim for the wall on the right.

I’m not giving Goddard a pass for the lock up, but at that location, no way to stop that car and not be bogged down. I can’t see any driver choosing that option. We’ve seen plenty offs and collisions there over the years. Wet and dry.

Edit: Chanda just went off. We need to see that replay.

Yeah it was a stupid statement that was said "You cant rejoin out of control"
If he was in control, he would not have rejoined like that.

Slade up 19 spots. Good slow climb for Golding into 6th right now.

 

[05XR8]

Wow, Murphy leading.

 

[Cap'n Jack]

Wow, Murphy leading.

It was nice while it lasted.

 

[Spacegoat]

This race has a whiff of 2014 about it. Absolute craziness already.

 

[Cap'n Jack]

Oh man, what a shame. The 17 car has been real quick in Will’s hands.

 

[Spacegoat]

The Bathurst 1000 Safety Cars.

That probably should be a penalty for Percat.

 

[Cap'n Jack]

There’s quite a few cars defending hard so early on, so there’s no surprise we’re getting some half hearted lunges from frustrated drivers.

 

[05XR8]

Hmm. No further action.

 

[Spacegoat]

Mostert's race so far.

#25 looks quick enough. Just can't seem to get past anyone.

 

[Spacegoat]

Game over for Percat. Bugger.

 

[05XR8]

He’s a knucklehead. Good thing they got him back.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Need a safety car.

 

[Grayfox]

Need a safety car.

We need rain.

 

[Spacegoat]

Need a safety car.

Yep, definitely.

 

[CodeRedR51]

We need rain.

No, that will help SVG. We need the opposite. 😆

 

[Grayfox]

SC

 

[CodeRedR51]

Ask and receive.

 

[Spacegoat]

Ask and receive.

Now things are going to get real interesting.

 

[05XR8]

Bathurst always delivers.

Too soon?

 

[CodeRedR51]

It appears the race is for 2nd place.

 

[Cap'n Jack]

It appears the race is for 2nd place.

Yeah, Kostecki is killing the race for first.

 

[Spacegoat]

F1 has a tractor on track. Bathurst has a ute.

 

[05XR8]

I get the feeling Waters doesn’t want to stay behind KostecI. Yep.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Pretty confident what you see is your finishing order.

 

[Spacegoat]

Yeah, Svg has this.

 

[05XR8]

agree.

 

[ColinNZ]

Let's Go!
