Maybe even a new manufacturer into the supercars series? Initial thought could be Honda but the McLaren situation could kill that idea

Apparently Lexus are interested as it would be a suitable tool for their GS-F.

Walkinshaw/United/Andretti have indeed announced they're seeking a new manufacturer this afternoon. Imagine a Jag XF!

Well Qualifying was a bit of a surprise, the Top Ten shootout will be special.

As expected the shootout was real close there were some epic laps.

The top ten shootout was so close the race is going to be a corker, I was surprised the Nissans weren't in the mix.

My prediction was off but hey ho & a big shout out to the helicopter pilot he was on fire.

The Pole was stunning or to use the commentators words "that lap was off the scale"

Anyone who has Superview needs to watch it.
