It's Lewis Hamiton; He has a godlike feel for the brakes. What's the cup car record on that track?

A good bit quicker than Lewis will go.

he comes within 5 tenths of the cup car record time if the track is hot, good tyres, full power and practice laps.

Hadn't realised there was a link between theology and F1 technical.

Hot track often = slow.

Duh, not for Hamilton. Hamilton likes hot tracks and oversteer, obviously #-o

It would be disappointing if Hamilton doesn't get to drive the car at full speed.

I saw an article earlier saying Button would be going flat out at Bathurst in a few weeks time. It would be very interesting to see the time difference between an F1 driver and V8 Supercar drivers.
