Sydney Olympic Park Set To Sizzle For 2013 V8 Supercar Title Showdown.

Craig Lowndes, RBR Aust. (C)

    V8 Supercars are about to wind up a thoroughly thrilling and entertaining 2013 season with their final event around the tight concrete lined Sydney Olympic Park street circuit that will stage the Sydney 500.
    With two gruelling 250km races still to contend and 300 points on offer, we have a situation where four drivers can claim the 2013 title. Recent series benchmark Jamie Whincup takes a slender 20 point lead over Red Bull Racing Australia team mate Craig Lowndes, with FPR duo Mark Winterbottom and Will Davison an outside chance for the victory spoils.
    As the season reaches its dramatic conclusion, we'd simply like to know; who will win? A retirement in one of the last two races could prove disastrous for one of the title protagonists. We must admit our sentimental favourite is Craig Lowndes. Formula Ford champ, Formula Brabham champ, International F3000, three V8 series championships, five time Bathurst winner. He's done it all. Leave a comment letting us know who you think will win and why or contact us at: greenflag@formulafrontrow.com. See you at the Sydney 500.

    Congratulations once again to Mark Webber for a marvellous F1 career. 215 starts, 9 wins, 42 podiums, 13 pole positions, 19 fastest laps. Stunning! Best of luck spearheading Porsche's World Endurance Championship campaign. Seems he's also contemplating teaming up with Eric Bana for an assault on the Bathurst 12 Hour GT race. Awesome....
