Bottom post of the previous page:

He is out of the top 10 now. They seemed to be cruising along happily waiting for the last hour to push.

The #45 Merc is in the garage! That was one of the leading cars in the race.

Now the Danny Stutterd/Steve Owen Evo Lancer has crashed at the Chase after what looks like a brake issue. That's another former race leader in big trouble. Safety car is out with a tad less then 2 hours to go.

The two BMWs seem to be fairly comfortable at the front, 10 seconds between them. The #23 of Beric Lynton seems to be keeping station ok with the leading #27 Sherrin M4. The two leaders are lapping comfortably faster than the followers, by 2 seconds a lap or so.The #6 AMG45 of Rod Salmon is running 3rd. The Jordan Cox Evo is running in 7th, a lap down. Only the first 4 cars are on the lead lap.

Another SC not sure why at this stage.

The Cox car (and the three in front of him) are on the lead lap, he's 2 minutes behind though.

Hmmm showing on live timing as a lap down. 89 laps over the leaders 90 atm. :dunno: http://www.bathurst6hour.com.au/timing
Maybe it is a when the leaders cross the line for two mins + they are a lap down until they cross the line themselves?

No he's on the lead lap. The live timing is based on how many laps they've completed, not the gaps between each car (which is what is shown on the broadcast)

He's in the garage sadly, so that doesn't really matter now.

Sherrin leads Lynton and Johnson now.

I think the leader has been black flagged for turning a car round in the Cutting.

Yeah it seems Sherrin turned him round. Presume black flag = DTP.
