Are the 'tele talkers' commentators or cheerleaders?

Scotty Mac did a fantastic job, and its certainly impressive for Volvo, but Larkham and Skaife in particular, come on.... (anyone would think MS has a stake in it all...)

There is so much white space on that page it is a joke but the logos are pretty - that is all that counts right
How many ads appear on news stories on the V8SC site that relate to V8Superview Phillip Island 2013?

It was rubbish, the F3 race was great though, fantastic performance and a new lap record by Simon Hodge, 3 seconds faster than a V8 Supercar in a 2 litre car!

With less than half the weight of a V8 Supercar, way more downforce, less drag, purpose built race car - the list goes on.

Those things should be going way more than only 3 seconds faster in reality - probably says a lot about the track and it not suiting F3 so well.

An F3 open wheeler laps quicker than a V8 Supercar? Next thing you know, someone will be claiming that an F1 laps quicker than an F3. Something to do with specs, my mate out the back reckons.

Bet you an F3 car could probably outpace any of the current Renault engined F1 cars over 20 laps though.

Is live streaming still available to subscribers on the V8Supercars website for this race? All I'm seeing is a message saying times for Melbourne F1 GP have not been finalized. Nothing about this weekend's race in Adelaide.

Not from my end, had live timing but kept crash around 12times. I even brought the app for the ipad and that did not even look like working, not happy V8 Supercars

What a yawn fest , glad I didn't have to pay to watch that race - they must have changed the camera angles or locations as none of the cars looked too spectacular and the cars colours didn't stand out (on my TV at least) and it was hard to pick out who was who - glad my enthusiasm has developed to "just a passing glance as I go about doing other mundane household chores

Lots of passes for position, different strategies, no safety car required to make exciting, close racing. Not sure what else is required from a race.

Just getting a bit sick of red bull domination

Brave move by the giz, not such how he got a way with it, too bad they didn't show it
