V8: Whincup Closes On Title At Winton
Jamie Whincup can be a fan of dominant sporting eras. After effectively sealing the 2012 V8 Supercar Championship at Winton last week the nurse can lay say they an era of his personal.About he considers himself a Champion in waiting using the blockbuster Sydney Telstra 500 in Ten days still up ahead, Whincup would wish a horrible disaster to suffer his 317 point lead, given if even he fails tomotorcycle engine covers finish both races a very further points penalty could prevent it.It has been a race won today by Whincup's TeamVodafone partner Craig Lowndes, but which has been a little lost during the bigger Championship picture. Incredibly Lowndes' win meant the Holden pair had won 17 for the last 18 races totally.Whincup drove what would seem like the better of his career to recuperate by a pit lane penalty that put him in 22nd to third in not that a good many more laps. In the space of some hour the entrance was spacious for your last event Championship challenge by Mark Winterbottom towards the door being closed over again.Ultimately it will eventually give Whincup four Championships in incomes. In V8 Supercar terms his dominant may gradually be in connection with the battery life of five-time Champion Mark Skaife, successive four time winner Ian Geoghegan in 1969 and Marcos Ambrose inducati clutch covers the 2000s."Some of the greatest sporting moments I are Michael Schumacher during his peak, Roger Federer just tidying up, Sebastian Loeb - I truly appreciate the inventors who increase. There doesn't need to become different winners yearly in order to make the sporting spectacle what it's," Whincup said.Whincup said he was a student in awe of Sebastian Vettel sourced from starting in pit lane in the case V8 Supercars distributed to F1 in Abu Dhabi a fortnight ago, entering for unplanned repairs yet still finishing third - a feat he virtually emulated today."To can see a guy like Sebastian Vettel absolutely at his peak, dominate and come through individuals is wonderful to view. I chill out and view thmotorcycle fairingsings prefer this; it's phenomenal to see."When pressed the intensely focused Whincup was reluc motorcycle fairing tant to let his guard down and celebrate the second."What are you wanting me to try - join the table or anything? There is no oppormotorcycle exhausttunity to celebrate anything, it's that busy, so why not allow it to sadly bottle taking no more the age and relax then."I don't wish 12 months for you to complete. We will look at Sydney, enjoy ourselves and continue to end up last year the way we know we're able to. I really don't think i am on the top of the podium in Sydney so which is a goal for certain."Resigned to finally being away from the running, Winterbottom was disappointed and reflective."We were built with a go today. Clearly there was some issue relating to the car but inspite of if some guy turns into a drive-through a drives back right through to third exactlty what can you do? You go home, work harder assure they can't get 1-2 (during the Championship),motorcycle gear," he said."Each year we've been consistent although not adequate for 1 year of year. This season the have been good here and there and we all happen to be sharing wins with Will (Davison). It is a good year however it is not suitable."You fall one race short. Exactly what can you do? It's disappointing but you can get 26 blokes behind me which might be more disappointed."At one stage today a super easy error appeared like being Whincup's race two demise. His TeamVodafone are the masters of minimising mistakes and also have barely put aclip on handlebars foot wrong throughout the year, then Whincup was penalised for his mid-race mistake.From the lead ofmotorcycle mufflers the race and having the Championship Whincup were required to concede at pit lane drive-through for allowing the wheels to spin whilst on the 'jacks' down pit stop. The rule is supposed to stop drivers from spinning their wheels as is also dropped back into the ground to get an edge.The penalty cost him dearly once but that had been before his miraculous drive."The fuel rig came off the car and generally it drops straight after. I dropped the clutch and also the wheels spun 1-2 times before I touched a floor. I knew I had used it. I figured hopefully no-one was looking. It was actually an error nevertheless i won't slit my wrists over it" said Whincup.Team boss Roland Dane isn't happy: "You carry out the crime you serve the right time I'm afraid,sport bike parts, that's patently obvious. I discovered it inside pit stop there and thought it would return to bite us.Within a interesting accessory for the Whincup dramas the FPR team then pulled the group orders card telling Will Davison to let Winterbottom pass for maximum points. Davison followed orders, surely just a little reluctantly, by allowing his team-mate through. It absolutely was still deficiency of.Stone Brothers Racing teammates Shane van Gisbergen and Tim Slade battled somewhat controversially for position through the entire race, eventually finishing 4th and 5th respectively.Jason Bright created late charge into 6th, displacing Tekno Autosport's Jonathon Webb.David Reynolds, Russell Ingall finished 8th and 9th while yesterday's podium fmotorcycle rear standinisher Lee Holdsworth recovered from a dent lap incident to get rid of in tenth place. |
