Listen "V8SP: We answer your Sandown 500 questions!"
Episode Synopsis
You’ve asked, we’re answering! V8 Sleuth’s Aaron Noonan and stats guru Shane Rogers run through a raft of listener questions about the Sandown 500.
Some of the topics we tackle in this episode thanks to your questions:
- The grid position that has produced the most winners
- How many championship-counting Sandown enduros have actually completed their scheduled distance
- Which individual chassis has won the Sandown enduro the most times?
- Did the Holden Racing Team cop a penalty for the infamous incident in the 1993 race where a bucket-load of water smashed the windscreen on one of their cars?
- The most successful driver pairings
- Should retro round and the ‘Race for the Grid’ qualifying race format return?
- The fate of the car Todd Hazelwood flipped at the Esses in the 2017 co-driver qualifying race
- And plenty more!
