yep, great result. I sat and watched all the races over the weekend and the Aussies were looking very much at a 2nd place overall until Brett Metcalfe made a minor fopar only 3 or so laps from the finish in the final. Sadly he dropped about 6 places and the team slipped back to 3rd. Great result though..historic even!! ;D

Some race footage, the actual race coverage starts at around 33 minutes into the vid.
