It wasn't queueing that cost 888 the win as the time is recovered when sitting behind the safety car, what lost 888 the win was the group of cars traveling behind 88 when Whincup had that battery issue, Tander was already past 88 and in the pits and 888 was stuck about 5 cars behind 88 across the top of the mountain at walking speeds...

It wasn't only the queing but also the loss of track position it cost them, working through traffic costs time. but yeah having JW hold everyone up over skyline didn't help.

To be honest I think the race controllers are bit over the top with the safety cars, it does take away from the race.

Is it just me or does Nick Percat have the makings of becoming Australia's answer to Sebastian Vettel?

He seems to be the complete knob. I was half expecting him to raise the finger when Tander crossed the line!

In saying all of that - fair drives from him and Thompson on the weekend. Two names we are sure to hear a fair bit of in the future I'm sure.

Yeah I agree, we where saying that a page or so back.

No doubt a decent steerer, but a complete twat

yeah. decent behind the wheel, just keep him away from cameras and a microphone.

He'll spend the next 40 years scrubbing wheels for DJR to pay for the car he wrote off......

nah, they'll buff that out. that car will be at the gold coast race for sure.

i was at work and tried to watch as much of it as i could. could someone fill me in with what nick percat was saying?

Also curious what Nick Percat said as my mate just had a family dinner with the guy

Also just got a text that apparently Mark Skaife were pretty pissed off at him

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
