I don't care who you follow , Craig and Steve winning the great race has to be a very fitting way to bow out of the sport . Well done ,and a well deserved win .

Agreed. Never been Holden, but always liked Craig.

I used to think the same...and only have Fox for the supercars, but if I could watch the races on free to air, they would be gone in 1/2 a second. !!

Naahh just hopeless at photshopping stuff, I just cant get my head around doing it ..
 I have a cousin that is  Fanatical about Brock / Lowndsey  and figured it would make a nice center piece wall poster gift to go with his model race car display cases and photos  ..
Might get the missus to post it up on Face crap and see if maybe there is someone out there in the ethernet that could do something like it .

We like to watch our sport as its played, particularly the Afl and I do love the variety of sport Foxtel offers so I,m happy to pay. V8 s I get all 3 or 4 days dependent on the event, so all the support races, practice sessions, qualifying etc.

Mark, television is not free. There is no free to air.
The costs may not be apparent, but you are paying for it.

Well done to Craig Lowndes and Steven  Richards, have to feel for Dave Reynolds, Luke Youlden and Erebus Team, who in hindsight would have pulled Dave from the vehicle in the pitstop. 

While the race was good it seems we missed all the action in the UFC.  Seems Conor McGregor was given a lesson then everything went wild.

Yep , gotta agree about Dave Reynolds/ Luke Youlden , but not for the Erebus Team. They made the decision to leave Dave in the car , if they had pulled Dave out and put Luke in they would have still finished on the podium .

Your dead right duggie, it was pretty easy to see that Dave Reynolds was not good, his eyes, the way he was pulling at his helmet etc plus they would have seen thru the data that things weren't right. Very poor decisions from Erebus, dont think Grant Macpherson or Roland Dane would have allowed that to happen and it probably cost them second place judging by the pace of the others at the time.
Shame they are a great small team too and they will learn from it.
Great drive and well done Craig Lowndes and Steve Richards

Yeah I agree.  When one the radio talking to Dave, he wasn't making sense, not actually answering, they should have changed drivers and in that regard the Team let themselves down.  My comment about Erebus Team was to have two cars performing so well and then for things to go so bad for them.  But as Betty said at the end of the day, it's motor racing and after 5 (or 15, can't remember now) minutes you are over it.
