I think that was just SVG winding up Mark Larkham who's a big Ford fan.

Wasn't just SVG.

Wouldn't put it past them saying it for the powers-that-be regarding equalisation.

They're doing a terrible job outlining where the cars truly sit based on tyres and fuel.

I gotta go to bed soon, 1am here.

Feeney looks to have the pace edge, especially if he has a shorter stop

They finally laid it all out. Feeney has a much shorter final stop, still no idea how he got ahead of kostecki though.

I gotta sleep, Thanksgiving here tomorrow so will watch the rest digesting dry turkey and gravy.

The Mustangs need a late SC to bring the field together and give them a sniff of a chance at the podium

What has happened to Brown? He's over 90 secs behind and back in 18th? Was up in 4/5th a little while ago, but haven't heard a mention of any issues with the car

Sounds like an engine issue

Nope gearbox issue - maybe the same as the 888 car?

Potential issue on Kostecki car now apparently?

Be somewhat hilarious after all the parity whinging that Ford somehow Bradbury's a win :lol:

Yeah unless something befalls the 97 they have this on pace.

The 17 though could get 2nd from Kostecki

Brown up to 7th now so must have just been the pit cycle where he dropped back to 18th

Kostecki looks to be safe from the 17 on pace, notwithstanding any further issue with the steering rack

Only 3 SC and no wildlife! That must be close to a record

Well done SVG and Stanaway! :up:

Will we see a farewell lap of honour like McLaughlin did a few years ago?

Edit: nope

Race somewhat petered out at the end unfortunately.

No late race SC and drivers nursing things to get to the flag - despite it being a relatively fast race, it felt more like an old school endurance race like it used to be than the frantic 1000km sprints it has become in recent times...
