www.milduraweekly.com.au 64 Mildura Weekly – 25/04/14 SUNRAYSIA V8 Supercar drivers Rick and Todd Kelly will be looking to el- evate themselves in the points stand- ings at this weekend’s round of the championship in New Zealand. Rick (PICTURED) currently sits 18th in the championship, five places ahead of older brother Todd as the se- ries revisits the Pukekohe circuit. Rick said he was looking forward to returning to Pukekohe better pre- pared than last year, particularly after a tough round at Winton earlier this month. “It’s quite a challenging track. I’m a little bit frustrated still from Winton, so I can’t wait to get back in the car and get it back up to the front,” he said. “Last year when we went to New Zealand, we weren’t too bad, and we were still trying to learn the new car, and this year our expectations are a little higher than they were this time last year. “The track itself is a very exciting one, it really does provide absolutely everything; it has one of the slowest corners of the season, it has a couple of fast sweeping corners, like turn one and the last pair.” This weekend’s round will feature a unique format, boasting four races over three days, the first of which will get underway later today after just one practice session and qualifying. Today’s 100-kilometre race will be followed by two more 100-kilometre dashes tomorrow ahead of a 200-ki- lometre race on Sunday. All up, there will be 500 kilometres of racing. This weekend’s event will be the first time in the 55-year history of the Australian Touring Car Champion- ship/V8 Supercar Championship that a round has been held on ANZAC Day. It will also be the first in the series’ histories that a race has been held on a Friday in Australia. Red Bull Racing driver Craig Lowndes leads the championship go- ing into this weekend’s event, 28 points ahead of Mark Winterbottom and 43 points clear of Fabian Coulthard.
