I'm surprised in a way that SC uploaded this race because of this and the way Neil crucified them. Correct though, the clowns had it in for him. Mind you they can't have learnt too much from back then, not sure if he still is in the role but having Jason Bargwanna as your driving standards observer... christ...
@@matt18333 Craig Baird is the DSO these days, does a pretty good job too all things considered. I agree with Neil that this was a shocking decision from Colin Bond though, and his justification really showed that he hadn't looked at the replays properly or had it in for Murphy, or a combination of both. Has always stuck out to me as one of if not the worst example of judicial injustice in a Supercars race.
@@hotwire96 there was one in the 2007 Clipsal 500 where a Perkins car shut off in the middle of the corner and got hit from behind and a penalty was awarded, it was a joke
Or the balaclava incident or the black flag removed from whincup vs winterbottom deciding race for the championship, winterbottom was black flagged for touching the white line entering pit lane, then later whincup did the exact same thing got a black flag drive thru aswell but then they with drew the black flag drive thru wich handed whincup the championship for Vodafone holden, a first in ALL motorsports history , far worse than Murphy vs lowndes incident far far worse
Laughable penalty for Murph regardless whether you were a Ford fan or Holden fan. Neil Crompton was right to roast Colin Bond. Boy did Crompo get into hot water for that outburst though.
I would have to say i agree 100% with Neil Crompton! Craig Lowndes was in trouble by himself, he probably would have gone off either way, Greg Murphy was following closely but did NOT intentionally tip CL off track he simply lightly bumped CL, CL,s car was well off the racing line, because he was out of shape Greg M had no where to go.
there was a Barbegello round - Ambrose had a five car length lead by turn three over Skaiffe - it was the first time in years that the HRT dominance had been erased.
@@Not_A_Cat wrong, have this race on VHS, the actual ch10 footage cuts 15 laps much later in the race as they did in 2004. There should be roughly 1hr and 50min of race footage to this race. Telecast times for these 300km races was 2:30pm to 5pm. Minus roughly 30min of ads
@@SydneyCroatia021 races weren't shown live back in the day. So you'd still have 3min of ads but 15 laps cut. This race went for roughly 2h 40 min and had to be cut to fit a 2h 30min telecast on ch10. This is an extended highlights package rather than a full telecast race unfortunately
