He is racing his dad's car.
His dad owns the K Mart team.

Remove all of Kelly's points for this round is justice enough.

I liked Russells comment made back to the team.
"I think a few blokes would like to string him up in the paddock later
on"

If it is still a question I would like to confirm that Bright IS driving for
FPR next season with Greg Ritter as his number 2.

What's even more crazy is that Ambrose got fined $10k for alledgedly brake
testing Rick Kelly in the first race. The idiot tailgates the leading
driver when he's a lap down, and then gets shirty when Ambrose gives him the
bright red lights! What a turkey.

Still, the work he did on Jason Bright was probably worth $10k to Ambrose,
from a championship point of view. I'm not much of a Jason Bright fan but
he didn't deserve that. Kelly also knocked off/spun at least 2 other
drivers didn't he?

Well Ambrose is the championship leader. If Ambrose got a fine for something
the Camera's did not catch, then Rick Kelly should be fined and suspended
from competing. It was like he had just got his license, and was street
racing his dads car. no respect.

He knocked off Ingall in the first race Saturday, and John Bowe in teh 2nd
race sunday. As well as Bright, who will most likely be racing for Ford next
year.

It was quite amusing, he didnt even flinch when knocking a ford out, but
then he knocks a fellow holden guy out, and he crys.

Rick Kelly should be suspended, or at least forced to pay for Jason Brights
car out of his own pocket... he tried in vain to take out as many contenders
for the title in one go......
shame on him... Definitely showing his immaturity over the weekend...

Couldnt agree more, team should definitely be fined for the bright
incident. I think he should actually be suspended for that as it looked
almost deliberate and could have been a lot worse (as if it wasnt
already bad enough).
He "should" have been given a drive through for the first incident with
?Bowe?
A lot of talent, pity about the maturity, it should come though, but in
the meantime he needs to be taught a lesson.
