Rubbish!! Multiple points to overtake? so what doesnt it happen too often? The only times it seems to happen is when cars are passing technically nferior cars. Even Schummy has resorted to passing cars via pit stops rather than on the track.

The long and short of it is that the cars rely so much on down force tat its no longer possible to over take CONSISTENTLY going into corners.

The track at Bathhurst is long and has plenty of over taking. The only difference being that it is primarily used for touring cars and therefore the aero dynamics are not as significant.
