SVG’s “bugger” had me when told to give Haley the spot back. Only a Brit, Aussie or Kiwi would use that particular curse!

Trackhouse saving a dying sport

I mean, racing on tight street/road courses in big, heavy, rear-wheel-drive cars is pretty much the Australian V8 SuperCars Championship in a nutshell.

@Pierce Hart In the rest of the world, motorsports broadcasts will usually color code lap/sector times on on-screen graphics. This has then migrated into the terminology of radio communications. Green means personal best for that driver, purple means fastest of the entire session, yellow means neither of those.

@projektdotnet oh cool, thank you.

@Pierce Hart so in road racing green sectors are your own fastest, purple means you’re faster than everyone else on track (aka if you have a purple lap it’s the same as saying fastest lap)

What did it mean by calling his lap purple?

@jordanfires9777  I agree with that. Good choice.
But, …… did not watch it.

Great replays.

This was live, and people in different countries watched it.

I watched it on the Mexican border. And I have a home in Chicago. The satellite went out in the small town I was in. Listened to it on sm radio. Drove and found a dive bar, Watched the last 10 Laps there.

​@A. BarkerRoss Chastain last year

he will do well , he is a voracious learner and would come up to speed very quickly , instant wins I’m doubtful but his name will be mentioned and he would take wins before his time ended there.
