Crazy race! One of the reasons I don't really like the Gold Coast circuit - or really any tight street circuit - the only passing is a result of pit strategy or driver error.

Are we blaming control, the team, or the driver for that error though?

Under SC... he was apparently told to 'turn it around' fairly interpretive I suppose - but I doubt they thought he was going to drive 50 metres backwards down the track to do so....

More than likely that was Race Controls fault as they would have told him to hold or spin it around.

They said to turn it around, but he drove halfway back down the section to do so.

It's just getting ridiculous with this curb hopping rule.

The internationals are not holding back in their comments (obviously the local drivers can't say too much!!!).

"The race has been ruined by a stupid rule"

"One rule for us, a different rule for everyone else"

Kelly's just ignoring the chicane completely.

Rolling the dice with end of race rulings?

Weird. I'm a bit put off now.
