I note that Darryl O'young (former winner of the event) is a leading contender again this year. We should see results early Sunday.

I don't believe we'll see it on TV over the weekend. Most of the coverage this weekend will be for the Danica 500.

It might show up in a week or so.

We’ll probably never be able to go to Bathurst, but we can watch the video. WOW!

Great race; loved the very 'Canadian' acceptance speach, all about the team. :)
The Australians are really starting to appreciate Darryl's talent. Last year their broadcasters were a little confused by a 'Chinese guy that spoke with a Canadian accent'!!
