Hi to all you v8 fans around the world.

In race 17 Red Bull Racing Australia’s Jamie Whincup started on pole position alongside him was Scott McLaughlin, on lap 1 of 35 Jamie Whincup made a blinder of a start from pole, Craig Lowndes grabbed 2nd spot immediately. Scott and Shane Van Gisbergen went side by side through turns 2 and 3 Scott McLaughlin had the ideal line for the right hander. But Shane stayed with it on the outside. Then he had the position for turn 6. On lap 2 David Wall got up the inside of Todd Kelly at turn 1. On lap 3 the pack behind the front runners were settling into a pace. Scott Pye got up the inside of Tim Slade.
