Bottom post of the previous page:

Damm WTF Payne just sat on the line. Not sure if he stalled or what.....

[Everso Biggyballies]

Ojeda lost a chunk of places from pole after T1 and down the order.

[Vassago]

Woke up 10 mins ago so I'm ready for some racing.

[Vassago]

Whincup with the best start and leads lap 1.

[theracer120]

Jones has gone boom. Sc

Mayhem in the pits. SVG and Davison had to double stack and have lost huge amounts of time

[theracer120]

Actually SVG only dropped to 9th. He and Whincup will be on the slower hard tyres for the rest of the race though, whereas Anton will be able to go onto the softs later.

[Vassago]

Do I see rain in the sky?

[theracer120]

Second pitstops are done. Waters leads Brown, with Will having newer tyres. First car on softs is Brodie Kostecki followed by Mostert and Whincup, although Brodie's will be pretty old by the end.

[theracer120]

Now it's showering a bit

[Vassago]

15 to go. De Pasquale passed Whincup. We could still see late pitstops for wet tires.

[Vassago]

Two Erebus cars on the podium. Waters leads with 10 to go.

[theracer120]

The rain is getting a bit heavier. It looks like Mostert might be able to jump B. kostecki. Svg is lurking behind him too

[Vassago]

SVG passed Mostert for 3rd. He could catch Waters & Brown...

[Vassago]

SVG up to 2nd! Waters is a sitting duck.

[Vassago]

SVG wins ahead of Whincup. Waters 3rd.

Well I stuffed up ..... had to go out and did not have my watch on. Got delayed and then looked at my phone to check the time, realised the race was about to start.... so got home and ended up watching it about half an hour behind live so couldnt log in here. Got caught out by it being still day light when it is getting late.

I thought the arly SC had screwed those who started on the soft when everyone pitted early, especially when others seemed to make them last. So much for the track being a night mare on tyres. It seems the super soft they were using for the first time tonight I think, handle the track better than the ordinary softs. Of course it worked out at the end with the RBs re-using the SS tyres they took off.

Some great dicing at the end for the whole top ten and a bit sorry to see the two Erebus guys fade at the end as the track got more and more wet. It could not have been that far from cars having to stop again for wet rubber.

Have to give it to SVG, a masterclass in the conditions to come back from a double stack delay and not getting the early benefit from the SS, to come through at the end.

I think the 1-2 finish for RBR will have tied up the Team Championship in their favour. I think the drivers title is technically / mathematically not over yet, but in reality it is.

All in all I hate to say it but another dramatic race at Eastern Creek. (SMP if you must)
Who would have thought that.

Tomorrow is the day they were saying was going to be really wet.

Edit: Just looked at the drivers points and a good finish tomorrow will I think tie up the drivers title for SVG. He now leads by 349 with 450 on the table
