Ford - King Of The Mountain

The Bathurst 1000 was on yesterday and what a great finish it was - Ford one, two and three. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it, Holden.



It was an ordinary sort of race for 149 of the 161 laps of Mt Panorama. That was until the rain came and almost nobody changed to wets because it wasn't very heavy. Then they started crashing all over the place. Oh, wasn't it nice to see Mark Skaife put it into the wall? I admire him as a great driver of V8 Supercars but he drives a Holden and so I hate him. He's just that good. Nice to see Greg Murphy, a Kiwi (and a damn fine, niggling driver), finish in fourth, the first of the Holdens, and miss out on a podium finish.

Ford won the race last year but it was special this year as they outdrove the Holdens.
