Adelaide, South Australia

Without a doubt the most exciting event on the V8 Supercar Calendar, most of the 3.2km layout is a shortened version of the former Australian Formula One Grand Prix street circuit. Renowned as one of the best street circuits in the world after its 11 year tenure as the home of the Grand Prix, the fast layout leaves absolutely no room for errors. This circuit's concrete barriers have on many an occasion provided a stark reminder to V8 Supercar drivers of just how hard it can bite if mistakes are made. Often the scene of titanic V8 Supercar battles, this circuit and record public attendances makes it the jewel in the crown of V8 Supercar racing in Australia and one of the biggest domestic sporting events in the country.

Very excited to be heading to Clipsal, it is one of my favorite events and the most challenging race of the year. I am in great shape physically and feel the fittest i ever have heading over to adelaide. FPR had a successful test day between Abu Dhabi and Clipsal so we are heading there feeling good about the car. Weather is looking interesting, normally it is extremely hot but there is some hint of rain on the forecast.
