A Review Of The 2024 Bathurst 1000! | The Cheap Seats

[@didgereemedia194]

Can we at least acknowledge that every driver did a fantastic job to keep it as clean as they did? True, it wasn't a great spectacle for the fans, but driving wise, I feel they did a fantastic job.

[@greatsageclok-roo9013]

Finally! Somebody who gets it. If you only thing you watch motorsport for is the crashes and incidents, *give up in today’s world.* Not only are race cars becoming easier to drive, the level of driving talent and racecraft is just getting better year on year. I wouldn’t be surprised if this becomes the norm at some point in the future.

@@greatsageclok-roo9013 the cars are actually harder to drive than Gen 2, but the point is the same, solid driving all round

Thank u finally someone who sees logic!!! These days people only watch it for the drama and chaos. This was a pure old-school race, just full on flat out

[@greatsageclok-roo9013]

​@@MinhLe-kt5zg And a race doesn't need chaos to be exciting. Last year's Singapore Grand Prix is a great example; virtually nothing happened (bar the last lap), but it was an amazing and close watch!

[@anthonyg638]

People watch this race for the drama. One car crashing in the cutting in the entire 161 laps is not very dramatic. They almost had the first race in its 65 year history where every car finished.

[@didgereemedia194]

That's also a pretty incredible statistic

@@jsmr451 GM wanted to pull out of Australia and did everything they could to white-ant local operations. Before the ill-fated Cruze was produced with eye watering amounts of Government money, the workers were asked what they thought should be produced locally and they said the Colorado.The rest is history.Remember GM only ever established local operations because during the 1930s depression currency restrictions on sending profits back to the US meant they had surplus cash they could only spend in Australia, so they bought Holden bodybuilders. GMH should have always been on a short lead.GM was never loyal to Australians even though their advertising may have said otherwise.

I enjoyed watching this

[@JamieRawles]

It was the single most boring Bathurst race, Ever!

[@jsmr451]

It’s an endurance race over 6 hours. What did you expect ?

[@JamieRawles]

@@jsmr451 That race would officially mean the mountain is defeated, Every car finishing? Yeah great news but there was no battle, the driving was tame. Unlike what Bathurst usually displays, it wasn't all that great.

[@Eric_412]

@@jsmr451if you think that it was anything other than a snooze fest then your definitely a casual..honestly, there would be more passing maneuvers and more action in a funeral procession.. The only thing that was more mind numbingly boring was Crompton and Skaif trying to make it seem less boring …

[@jsmr451]

@@Eric_412 Actually it means I know about it then you do. Like I said, what do you expect from a 5-6 hour endurance race?

[@MultiRationalThinker]

I've loved the work of the Working Dog team for many years, but this one was an absolute stinker. What were you guys thinking? If anyone other than Working Dog had produced it (and I assume you do since you're showing clips of it here), I could have remained in blissful ignorance that this show ever existed as I gave up on commercial TV some years ago. I just couldn't take the endless ads, apparently aimed at the brain damaged toddler market. Seems that now the shows are being aimed at the same market.

[@ableknight6637]

Teams have clearly had to strategise to avert the 80kph madness that was an obvious hazard given the circuit they where on... Safety first 😴🤖🤡

Pathetic show. Ads tell it all. Another channel 10 show i don’t watch. Are they funny. ????

[@comealongcomealong4480]

@danielderrick6062 This segment would've entertained more if the hosts' talking was halved and the Ch10 footage from the race doubled. The cutaways were too jerky, too quick. /It's probably an age thing ..... these two hosts, Mel and the chap. Swaying in their chairs, arms continuously waving. Feel quite nauseous as a viewer. And as for diction - chrishelpme. I had to listen twice to the crowd number, he slurred the digits so much. First guess: 119,000. Second guess: 192,000. Still not sure.
