DE PASQUALE - QUOTE
"Sunday Sydney Motorsport Park done. Another busy day coming off the night race into a twilight one and then good to make the shootout again keep that streak going. Apparently, I'm the only one that's done it so far this year, so that's a surprise, but it's a good one and then battling top 5 again today. Good solid weekend. Still sort of competitive in quali but not quite as fast as the first two or three in the race, just lacking that bit of race pace, so we know what we need to work on so eyes forward."

DAVISON - QUOTE ‍"Sunday a few highs and lows. The pole position was amazing, a real thrill and my first in this Gen3 car. We're making really good inroads, really finding some great consistency in qualifying for the cars so then we're pretty focused in the race. We made a few changes to try and fix it from the Saturday night race. Ultimately I think we went the wrong direction so as much as that hurts, as frustrated as I feel now, we'll still learn from that for next time, what not to do. And very tricky race strategically, you know both strategies can work, the one-stop and the two-stopper both have merit, we're disappointed we didn't go with the one-stopper, it was probably the best strategy for us, it got Waters and Brown on the podium who were behind me in the first stint, so disappointed not to have a trophy but we committed to our strategy and we just couldn't quite make enough inroads with the speed and tyre life we lacked today, but ultimately a great team effort both races. Pretty faultless by the team to have us both there consistently so we'll take the positives and move on."
