I thought they may have brought Chaz in a lap or two early, moot point now with ADP parked up and causing safety car.

Unless SVG punts him off, hard to see him losing

SVG is a drama magnet so I wouldn't be surprised if something happens here.

The constant safety cars toward the end just kills the race.

The gap Chaz can pull in a lap is insane.  I don't recall such a dominant car at Bathurst in recent history.

Just look at the gap Mozzie pulls on the restart. WAU have struck gold!

Maybe spoke too soon?  SVG is holding him now, perhaps the tyre advantage is showing here.  Or Chaz is just managing himself.

They're really talking up Van Gis and kind of ignoring Chaz...

Because we expect Chaz to be the quickest and pull away, not SVG to be slightly quicker.  That IS the story of the race currently.

Shane isn't faster tho. He gets within hundredths but he's not been faster since the restart.

True, but he's holding, which isn't what has been expected.  There's not much else to talk about than the leading battle so I'm struggling to see the issue here.

ANyway Chaz pulling again and they are talking about him in Commentary to keep you guys happy.

SVG kills his tyres faster when chasing someone.
