I wasn't really surprised about anything from the weekend's round of the Supercars championship at Ipswich to be honest.
Triple Eight Racing, like they showed in Townsville, are starting to look like they are creating a bit of a pattern. They proved they are finding a bit of dominance in the championship. Pro Drive are hanging on, doing a good job but they need to do a little better.
Pro Drive were unlucky not to contribute a little more this weekend. Chaz Mostert might have been in a good position to win the Saturday race - he got into a battle with Chris Pither on the opening lap that cost him dearly. He could have won that race if he had managed to get out in front to start with.
Speaking of Pither - his maiden pole position was a superb result. He did an amazing job. Chris' performance over the weekend highlighted his determination to be at the front of the field. He has been working hard with the team and his engineer to gain as much experience and knowledge as he can.
He did a beautiful job on Saturday to out-do the field for his first Armour All Pole Position. That was a great moment for him. It was appreciated by everyone in the paddock just what a great job it was because it is a tough old championship.
