V8 Supercars 2014

No... Pye/Walsh were blasting along too.

Dull it isn't.

Plenty of action going on, kangaroo on the track, lots of cars kissing the wall due to track break up...........

I'm having a lazy Sunday watching it live (10am here), lap 60 of 161 and the safety car is out again (it lost its roof lights earlier!).

Castrol have got their monies worth this year....

Wonder what they're going to do about Turn 2?

Do they have some sort of quick setting patch they can use?

[Jader1973]

Stopping the race!

FFS!

I think they said something about quick repairs, you guys are dedicated if you are up watching live!

Race suspended........

[Norbury90]

Oh god here we go!

Not really dedicated - I'm in Melbourne

This is looking more like the M25 by the minute.

[Jader1973]

Canto talking sense. Drive to the conditions.

[DanielSan]

Only 15-20 minutes. Not long.

Ah right, Perth for me, bit cloudy and windy here, best conditions for watching the race live, not being pestered to take the family out!

They had to do something about it, there were so many people going in the wall that there wouldn't have been anyone left by the end. Those tyres bundles probably are past their best as well. Can't go taking chances with safety a week after what happened with Bianchi.

I have a feeling it may be more safety fence repair related. Especially after Suzuka.

It's both, but the deteriorating potholes on track are clearly not going to go away. They should just do what the council here do - paint a yellow circle around it and leave it for six months...

Looks like the dipper is breaking up too.

Did they get a gang of gypos with some spare tarmac to do the circuit?

Worse. They used beer fuelled Aussie's

This is like going to Kwik Fit with a nail in a tyre. You come out with full set of new brake discs and pads, a new exhaust, a new starter motor and 4 brand new tyres!

You forgot the new wiper blades too, typically fitted upside down
