The Enduro at the bend, then Bathurst.
I like the finals idea especially Adelaide being the GF kinda.
Sandown is now a single driver race run over 2 days. Much like how Adelaide operates.

Interesting that Sandown could be spared from redevelopment as a new president has been elected to the MRC and is pro motor racing.

Absolute carnage during qualifying at turn 8 … Stanaway, Hill and then Reynolds all crash at nearly the same spot literally one after the other.

Plus a couple of nasty crashes yesterday in the supports. The barriers nearly got breached on both those incidents, surely some remediation effort required to increase safety in those locations.

Not surprising when you consider WAU is going to Toyota next year and GM seemingly not committing to a Camaro successor after killing it last year.

DJR get a sore arse out of it but they’re no match for the might of Triple Eight.
