NEIL CROMPTON INTERVIEWS CRAIG LOWNDES FOLLOWING HIS RETIREMENT ANNOUNCEMENT

[@tonga741]

Thats a champion there people to numbers that will never be forgotten in the racing world 05 and 888 of super cars

[@OlMG91]

Loved him and hated him at points but he is a good bloke and hell of a racer

[@mattcecil6692]

Bathurst sure was a fairytale ending for all of us. It hasn't clicked for me that it was his last full time Bathurst run with Richo to be honest. As a long time fan I thought 2006 was the greatest win for him, but now I feel like 2018 could be up there

[@leecoates4082]

well done mate massive career brock and all your fans would be proud

[@pampushki6580]

The complete driver. Well done Craig, pity you didn't stay with Ford, but happy to see you race anything. Good luck with your future plans.

427camo If I may, Triple 8 were dropped by Ford (as was, for some reason, DJR) in '08 thanks to the economic mess and Holden went to Triple 8, not the other way 'round. Besides, I don't think CL was really involved in that decision.

@@Ward1706 I can tell you the reason Ford dropped Triple 8 and DJR. I wouldn't be surprised if the GFC had some influence, but the reason Ford Australia pulled funding to those 2 teams and only kept funding for Stone Brothers and FPR was because, and I shit you not, Triple 8 and DJR " had too much red and didn't have any blue on their liveries".
