V8 Supercars Gold Coast 600

[IainW]

I've just seen on Twitter that it's live online this weekend. Very good news.

Another great lineup, but it's a shame it clashes with Petit Le Mans, the DTM and WTCC, taking more drivers out of the equation. 6 British drivers in there. No Todd Kelly through needing a shoulder operation and Alexandre Premat has been replaced by Greg Ritter. Not sure if that's a permanent move.

That is a great line up! Is it going to be on YouTube like the 1000?

[IainW]

I'm assuming it will be. I read it on Twitter from a British journalist that it'll be available online. Otherwise it's next week until it's on Motors.

[Rex Ironstone]

Race one just started. won't spoil anything but big big mess on the start. Some drivers got a terrible start.

What a cracking line up!

[IainW]

So much for being streamed by them, I can't find anything about it and their youtube page has brief 5 min highlights.

[Ponk]

Will have to keep an eye out for race 1 on YouTube. Any idea when race 2 is due to start?

[IainW]

The feed might appear here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBq_Bp4SINo&fea...

That seems to be a rerun of the aborted start.

feed just started with a car on its roof!

[IainW]

Yeah that was race one. I watched a bit of that link, but it was all downtime between starts. It's not live yet obviously because of the time difference, but that could be where race two shows up.

[Ponk]

Apologies, terrible at formatting, especially on iPad.

Not quite the cliff hanger finish of Bathurst, good racing nonetheless.

HUGE shunt at the start of race 1:
