Maybe Webbers last year in F1. He may be looking at a Le Mans start next year.

Mark has signed a five year deal with Porsche for Le Mans starting 2014 and it is expected he'll quit F1 like you said BAD at the end of this season.

Great finish to Bathurst yesterday, the last 10 laps was very exciting and a good effort by Lowndes to get to the podium. Whincup's last lap lunge to try for the lead was gutsy and well defended by Frosty.
A pity Holden didn't get up but well worked by Ford.

Agree, I am a Holden man but if it had to be a Ford driver then Frosty would be my choice.
