Good return to form for Lowndesy

Also good job from Perkins to run successfully the alternative strategy (as opposed to Van Giz) to grab 12th in the first race having started last. Not sure what happened to him in the second race to be a lap down by the end but they didn't do the same strategy when they probably should have done...

Disappointing to see Van Giz and Walkinshaw struggle so badly today -

Also from the dunlop series I had to laugh at Timmy Edwards getting all upset about Cameron Waters' drive through when it was a clear breach of the rules and the suitable penalty to be applied was a drive through. Go Dumbrell!

Only if Jack Perkins ever wins a race!

[JP is a Holden fans favourite]

JP win a race ha, all hes doing is wobbling around keeping a competitive Ford out of the top ten.

The perfect example of a driver getting a drive based daddies name.

Or just the ford is a **** car to adapt to after driving a holden!

To be fair, I thought he deserved a drive this year with how he drove in last year's development series and with the money he brought to the team through hog's breath it made nearly perfect sense for Nash to take him on-board. But I'll reserve my full judgement on how he has gone until Bathurst because I know he will perform strongly there

On today's racing, well done to Mostert in scoring his first win for FPR. But more than anything, great to see 888 back up there competing for the wins. Disappointing to see the rear left tyre blow outs that affected both HRT cars

[crikey]

Is it Jack or is it the car-team? Alex had no joy last year and now Jack, I can't see Jack getting a new contract next year unless there is a big turn around.

My feeling that for a team like FPR the **** runs downhill. Or, in other words, the majority of the resources are directed towards Frosty's cause and then the remaining resources are provided on a sliding scale to Mostert, Funny man and then Jack. I mean it doesn't make much sense for Funny man to be struggling more than say Mostert as he has been with the team for much longer that funny man should have his head around the car more unless, that is, resources are being divided amongst the drivers on an unequal basis.

From the weekend, officials have fined Erebus $10,000 with $7,500 of that suspended for having two pressure sensors being used at the same time. All the other teams only have one but Erebus sought special permission to have two on the condition that only one of them would ever be activated at the one time. Erebus say they got no performance advantage but no one can really dispute that as no other team runs two. I still think that fine is too low - $2,500 for something that they were explicitly told they can't do and gave an undertaking not to - surely it should have been a bigger hit. I also think there is some previous form for SBR at play in this debacle - www.crash.net/v8/news/104172/1/updated-sbr-appeal-upheld-penalty-reduced.html

I agree with that, Cant see Charlie or his sponsors being very happy with it though.
