“It’s pretty awesome to end the Eseries with the championship. I qualified really well at Oran Park, but unfortunately couldn’t quite pull a fast lap together at Bathurst, and I managed to qualify fourth. The Oran Park race was heaps cool. I was only a teenager when I last raced there, so it brought a heap of cool memories back. I was able to extend my lead there before a crazy race a Bathurst. I was a bit angry at myself for pushing too hard for the win at Mount Panorama which caused me to spin out Anton (de Pasquale), but everything worked out in the end. I really have to thank everyone at Supercars for putting on a great show. The Eseries was a lot of fun and kept us busy during these crazy times. Thanks to the team, my crew who spotted me every week, Omen and HP for supplying me with my simulator gear, and Armor All for their donations to my designated charity, Wings for Life.”
Shane Van Gisbergen
“It’s been a tough 10 weeks for me in the Eseries, but I had a lot of fun. Overall, I’m proud of all the team at Supercars for bringing together a championship when we couldn’t compete on the real racetrack. So many people behind the scenes dug deep and made it happen, no more so than my fellow Supercars’ drivers that put in hours and hours of time on the sim each week getting ready for the competition. I quickly realised that the gaming world is very different to the real world, although both just as challenging and requiring the same amount of skill. I look forward to continuing using my simulator on a monthly basis racing my mates for fun from time to time. I thank everyone who tuned in to watch the competition and I hope it only makes everyone hungrier to enjoy the action from Sydney Motorsport Park at the end of the month.”
Jamie Whincup
“It was great to be a part of the Eseries again, especially for the final round, although my performance wasn’t as good as I would’ve liked it to be. Oran Park holds fond memories for me. The track is just as busy on the sim as it was in real life. It’s great Shane has taken out the Eseries championship. It’s been really close between Anton (de Pasquale), Scotty (McLaughlin) and Shane the whole way through. I got in SVG’s way unfortunately in qualifying at Bathurst but luckily enough he managed to get over it. The championship win for Shane is great for the team and all the sponsors involved, but now the Eseries has concluded they have to get their head back into the main game.”
