WINTON MOTOR RACEWAY | 24-26 August 2012

The tight and twisty rural layout features a range of slow corners which combine to make Winton the slowest circuit on the V8 Supercar calendar. A total of 12 corners linked by short straights, it was lengthened by a kilometre in 1997. With so many slow corners, having a car that can be kind to its rear tyres is crucial, particularly in the longer races.

2011 WINTON MOTOR RACEWAY REVIEW

Whincup won Saturday’s Race 10, which was his fifth race win for the season. Whincup stopped on lap 14 and while other drivers were unable to keep the pace with fading tyre grip after stopping early, the TeamVodafone Holden had the pack covered and took first place. Lee Holdsworth drove a strong race to snag second place, just 0.03s in front of Steven Johnson after the two drag-raced to the line off the last corner after 40 laps of racing.

Jason Bright won Sundays Race 11, with a superior strategy paying off in the face of darkening skies that eventually produced a deluge after the race ended. Winton finished second, with the final podium spot going to Garth Tander.
