They hook up a generator as their car takes the lead from the Ambrose car with the Ingal car in third. Perhaps Weel is quicker without a voice in his ear! Close racing here with the 3 co-drivers doing a fantastic job.
Skaife stated that these three cars would be disadvantaged by the co-drivers, whereas he and T Kelly were paired.
Not the case so far

Let me get this straight....Tag hit the wall at the end...of Conrod? Something happen to the car to cause him to paint the wall, or was it all driver-related?

ok, I would guess that he had to much bias on the rears, and locked them up. That meant he couldnt make the corner, and I have to be frank, his car control from that point was shall we say a tad ordinary. These cars are so heavy, and with his lack of laps, it just couldnt do what he asked it to do

Tag probably thought he was in his ChampCar and tried to get the V8 to do something it just wasn't supposed to do.
