And the champs keep on coming..

Thanks to SpeedCafe for the seasons coverage.

Well. we lost the excitement of what the Supercars championship could have been when a mishap in Shane Vans final pitstop of the Saturday (penultimate) race bought the wrath of the stewards. Contraversial as was the wheel spinning in NZ but it really destroyed what would have been a down-to-the-wire the finale. With a five grid penalty it blew out the points only requiring Scott McLaughlin to finish the race.to claim the title. It was a great run from the young and excitable Kiwi lad and credit must go to the Dick and Richard Shell team. We lost last years championship winner Jamie Whincup earlier on in the season leaving the Giz to take the reins only to be let down by the mighty T8 team. They had it in the bag if it hadn't been for the spinning wheel penalty and Saturdays fuel/jack issue. No doubt Rolly will be having a few words with the crew before the new season.
Congrats Scotty, you must be the most popular superstar in motorsport this week. A well driven and deserved championship win. And did I forget to mention that the old Peter Brock trophy can handle 40 chicken McNuggets!!
