Who won fool?? Its just a massive sook for Murphy. He wasn't even on the track ffs, a big sore losers arrow above Murphy for life now, is that what he wanted???? If you look at all the holden fans having a big cry boooo hoooo, hey ding bats,, 2019-2020, ford championship winners manufactures title , team tile, bla bla bla, won everything except Bathurst, Holdens last year next year, hahaha, good ridims to bad rubbish, falcon maybe gone. But FORD lives on, and will continue to beat GM
@@hesgotamotor8288 are u fucking brain dead? He brake tested someone after the race and u can see on the outside perapective he even blocked to make sure Kelly couldn't pass, so unless ur brain dead I don't know what the fuck is wrong with ur brain cells
Just to clarify for those who are not aware - as it was never explained at the start of this clip - Rick Kelly made contact with Russell Ingall on the opening lap which resulted in a puncture on Ricks car. Rick came back onto the circuit 1 lap down on the leaders (hence why he was between Ambrose 1st and Murphy 2nd and not at the press conference). Towards the end of that race, Rick was right behind Ambrose and Ambrose feeling the pressure from a car 1 lap down and tried to to give Rick a chance to pass without loosing too much time to Murph but Rick wouldn't take up the opportunity (Not jumping to conclusions but one must ask why a driver approaching the leader would not take up the opportunity to unlap himself) and that's what led to Ambrose confronting Rick after the race and also what he was referring to when he said "It's really disappointing that they want to play that way" because Ambrose (his words not mine) in an interview seconds after confronting Rick, alleged that Rick was instructed to pressure him into a mistake so Murphy could capitalise and take the win. Not jumping to conclusions, just highlighting another side to the story that wasn't shown in this clip from the following round at or close to the Symmons Plains round that year.
Sounds fair enogh, but why be concerned or afraid of a car 1 lap down, Is'nt the rules there to protect the drivers that runs fair? If it's one young "hothead" in the race, you don't have to be the same! But thats what i'm thinking, a guy from the other side of the world. (Norway, and all we have is Rally and Rallycross :-( ) ;-)
I think it was more he was thinking it was a tactic from the lapped car to help it's team mate by putting pressure on the leader. I suppose it's easy to get caught up in the moment where the pressure is on and sometimes when you feel hard done by, it's easy to be irrational and overreact. Makes great viewing for the fans but and that's what motorsport is about.
You said it well! Teamwork, competition, personality and finaly, to give the fans a great racing! And V8 Supercar Champ. is no doubt one of the worlds greatest show. ;-)
Yeah I know it was, I'm just explaining why Marcos did it because they only showed what happened after the race, not the circumstances from start to finish.
I know that. I'm a big fan of Ambrose, I was friggin glad when he won at Watkins Glen last year, but my point was that Ambrose was in the wrong in THIS case. I'm not taking anything away from him as a driver, but if he wasn't in the wrong for that incident, why did it take him so long to reply to Murphy's question - "Why'd you jump on the brakes?".
Bathurst wins - Murphy: 4, Ambrose: 0. Numbers speak for themselves. On a serious note, Ambrose was in the wrong there, and it's not because I'm a Murph supporter. Why else would you mash the brake pedal after the race?
Lunch if you read the comment a few more times you peanut, it may sink in that there’s no mention of the guy’s ability. More a cheeky bit of banter relating to the backflip of intention or perhaps motivation resulting in his change of heart to continue. Give yourself an uppercut you drop kick.
I hope Murph gets a good car next year. I've run into him a few times at motocross tracks and he's a good bloke. His skills (and balls around Bathurst) are unquestionable.
Rick Kelly was 1 lap down after a punctured tyre from spinning Ingall around on the opening lap and Ambrose felt as though he tried to let Rick pass a few times throughout the race and unlap himself, but Rick wouldn't take up the offer. It was alleged at the time that it may have been a tactic from Kmart for Rick to pressure Ambrose into a mistake and allow Murph to capitalize, hence Marcos having a go at Kmart during the press conference and confronting Rick after the brake test incident.
Rather ironic hearing Greg Turkey say that. I seem to remember one bathurst not too long ago where he paired with Skaifey that had Greg screaming on the radio how everyone is holding him up - despite the fact that they were racing for position lol.
A brief history of Marcos's v8 supercar career .. 2001 Ambrose was signed by Stone Brothers Racing to drive the Pirtek Racing Ford Falcon. Ambrose stunned the V8 Supercar world when he qualified on pole for his first ever V8 Supercar race, supporting the Australian Grand Prix 2003 - 2004 won the series .. back to back and if Murpgy didn't take him out more than likely 2005 as well .. Ambrose is still the only driver to have a round win in every V8 Supercar season he has participated in.
Ambrose has brake tested a few drivers - he also had a habit of turning across the front of other drivers when they were trying to make a legitimate pass at a corner.
Marcos Ambrose basically admitted recently that he was very driven about his racing and was little bit arrogant. Good on Marcos for owning up and admitting a fault.
I don't dispute that, though my main point of my comment was that Ambrose had intentionally brake tested Kelly. I'm a big supporter of Marcos, I'm glad he's doing well in the States at the moment, but his head was obviously in Disneyland long before he ever went there. I've never, NEVER in the 12 years that I've been watching V8 Supercars seen that happen, and regardless of what flag you fly, it is not acceptable. If Murph did that, I would have exactly that same opinion as I did on Marcos.
Totally agree mate, he achieved a lot during his short time here and he was always hit with penalties for minor infringements that hampered many more of his potential achievements in V8 Supercars. He was not liked by race officials, because he always spoke up about their tactics when they were unjustified and they always fined him heavily and accused him of bringing the sport into disrepute and that's one of the main reasons he left Australia to pursue Nascar, and he hasn't looked back.
I'm not whinging about anything, I'm just saying that Marcos made a stupid decision. I'm not comparing driving ability here, I was jokingly comparing statistics. I'm a fan of Marcos, and I reckon he'll snatch another win at Watkins Glen this weekend, BUT this doesn't clear him of the fact that he brake tested Kelly. It doesn't matter who you are, that shit is not on.
Kelly's all money and no talent. Murphy all talk, lacking the ability(recently) to put his words into action. Amrbose earning more money than all of them. Living the dream.
Difference is that could be at 40-60kph and $10,000 worth of crumpled Datsun? This was at like 200kph, $400,000-odd of race car, including Ambrose's car. Imagine if Kelly wasn't aware that Marcos was slowing?
*could. He was excellent at Stone Bros. and his efforts in Nascar were commendable but his come back showed the series has moved on since he raced full time. It was professional of him to say to the team that they should find another driver to replace him.
Ambrose didn’t prove that fords performance was superior.. all he did was prove he was a grub! How he won wasn’t driving.. an embarrassment to ford fans nationwide
That stat was not the point of that message. And I'm sick to shit of people thinking that I'm trying to say Murph is a better driver than Ambrose. Of course he isn't, HOWEVER, that does not mean Ambrose can brake-test someone and potentially cause a huge crash. That was my main point of the comment.
ambrose is great! met the guy a few times, top bloke, seen murphy around at a few race meets, watched as he refused to meet and great fans, sign autographs etc. and the way he spoke to these people was just plain rude. Ambrose is always more than happy to stop and meet with people, which reflects on what a nice overall gentleman he is
You didn't actually provide a reason why Ambrose hit the brake pedal. I slow down after everyone of my races, you have to! Ambrose was not in the wrong he was just doing what everyone normally does.
Yeah, of course you have to slow down after the race, I know that, I race Rotaxs in NZ. But you wouldn't slow right down to a crawl after the race. I heard the brakes on live telly after the race, you could hear that he hit the brakes hard. That and Ambrose did look in his mirrors at Kelly. But hey, it's just my opinion, I think that Ambrose was in the wrong there, I think a lot of honest people would say that as well, and Ambrose was fumbling his words when Murph asked why he hit the brakes.
Ambrose went on to win the championship for a second year in a row and has gone on to become the most successful Australian nascar driver in history. Had nothing to do with Murphy anyway, not sure what makes him think his opinion means anything to anyone. Kelly what? Murphy who?
no australian cares about nascar... his "success" there was pretty average.. and his supercars championships where done by CHEATING.. remember the face ambrose hated wearing the mandated balaclava...
Well murph's still limbing around like a 60 year old with a back brace and currently last in the 2012 championship, and Ambrose is in the US winning races and lifting the Australian v8's profile. like u said numbers speak for themselves
No sympathy for little ricky...he has dished plenty out in his time and won a championship through the shenanigans of his team mate and the team mates of their sister team
probably. he has a kid too so I imagine that toned him down a little. Still, I respect the hell out of all v8 drivers. and I'm from North Carolina. I'm jealous you guys get to watch this on the weekends :D
Ambrose's attitude was clear to see at the start of the year... the big announcement on his comeback, Penske money, all the hype, and then what did we get.... 1 round of racing and then it's "I quit cause I'm too slow, and I hate driving at the rear of the grid" .... Boo Hoo, where's my mummy. All that hype for 1 round of racing, what an arrogant arse. I feel sorry for Team Penske who have got stuck with $50,000 worth of racing merchandise with Ambrose's name on it, which was made to sell during the year.... they got 2 races. Thanks Mr Ego Ambrose.
@EnviXR8 well actually Holden didn't buy 888 (whom i strongly dislike as it is), they just saw Holden would give them a fairer chance with sponsorship, which Ford sucked out of most of the Ford teams. as for Courtney, didnt Ford buy Lowndes in 2001 ;) ? im not going to agree with you either, as i think Murphy is a fairer driver to Ambrose. you call Murph a winger. ambrose used to complain at the first sign of a battle with another car, usually shoving them off into the dirt to get round them
Bathurst 2013, best thing I saw was Murphy put it into the wall after the absolutely appalling, I'd suggest dangerous driving he displayed in "protecting" his position. The man is a prick on legs.
@dx6789 At the time Rick Kelly was 1 lap behind the leaders in that race and Ambrose felt as though he tried to let Rick Kelly unlap himself on several occasions, as he was presuring Ambrose despite being 1 lap behind, and Ambrose felt as though Rick wouldn't take up the offer to get back on the lead lap. Long story short, it was believed that Rick Kelly tried to pressure Ambrose into a mistake so Murphy could capitalise, and this lead to Ambrose confronting Kelly at the end of the race.
They were all pretty unprofessional during this period. Murphy was very lucky not to have caused Ambrose serious injury going up the mountain in 2005. Too many rushes of blood. Kelly was prone to 'em as well.
I know nothing about Ambrose.., but saw that he pulled hard across in another race at the start & forced/ well brought about a crash took the other driver out.. I think his comment re he’s got a competition to win.. was potential/ extremely telling
Should Never Have Let Him Go To USA, He The Only Ford Driver With The Intestinal Fortitude That Could Beat JW (He may Have Won Championship In A Holden ) But How Well Did HRT Go This Year?
if you are talking about the race at philllip island you mean when lowndes was blocking kelly early in the race, they come together and one of the jim beam fords hit the side of lowndes car and forced him out lol, i think you need to check your facts before hand....
ok then, he lost to people who have been driving longer than him ON A OVAL. WOW!! He wins 2 consecutive at a road course, which doesn't just have left turns, its also HAS RIGHT TURNS AS WELL.
@EnviXR8 if you reread my comments, i never said Murph was. but really who cares about the championship? its just a big promo stunt these days. the only thing most people care about is Bathurst, and guess what, Ambrose never won, let alone did well, at Bathurst. also how many records does Ambrose hold in V8s? not many compared to Murph, Murphy is one of the most expirenced racers in the field, & yes he is close to retiring, but he is still a gd racer and a gd bloke! evr met him? try it some time
He pretty obviously brake tested him.
fuck it im glad he is going after the kelly pricks
Murph was 100% right in everything he said and you could see Marcos was struggling to make up an excuse and deflect the question.

$10,000 fine for a brake test, $25,000 fine for calling a competitor's entry 'Pussy Wagon'. Seems fair...
that's the political correct world we are now in

@@1968lr Greg is a sore loser.
@@uraniumcranium2613 Ambrose was always a worm. Remember when he lied about wearing the balaclava at Bathurst?
V8 Supercars in a nutshell
Greg Murphy, what a legend
Murph you legend!!
Ambrose shouldn't have been allowed on a race track. His license should have been revoked. He's a disgrace.
Marcos was such a bastard but god i loved him anyway.
the character on the helmet looks like its giving the finger when he turns around
ok then, he lost to people who have been driving longer than him ON A OVAL. WOW!! He wins 2 consecutive at a road course, which doesn't just have left turns, its also HAS RIGHT TURNS AS WELL.
this wasnt the first time that he did it either! he did it to mark skaife at oran park. took skaife out of the race
@v8supercarsnumber1 Yes Marcos Ambrose has won one race. At Watkins Glenn last year, but he has won
Yeah he won in a series where 99% of the guys don't know how to turn right. Hardly a challenge for any decent road course driver.
When did Murphy ever take anyone out? That is a flat out lie
@EnviXR8 if you reread my comments, i never said Murph was. but really who cares about the championship? its just a big promo stunt these days. the only thing most people care about is Bathurst, and guess what, Ambrose never won, let alone did well, at Bathurst. also how many records does Ambrose hold in V8s? not many compared to Murph, Murphy is one of the most expirenced racers in the field, & yes he is close to retiring, but he is still a gd racer and a gd bloke! evr met him? try it some time
Kelly was a lap down from Ambrose & was trying to take him out. Murphy always a good drama queen.
Best day when he left to go to NASCAR!!
Greg Murphy is the only driver ever to win on debut
