That's kinda a help to SVG. He's an experienced street racing in supercars where so.e races are street races. With the wet conditions and, experience in rally cars. I think it certainly would have helped.
@@MrNobody1111-1 not during V8 supercars "PRIME PINNACLE" era 1992-2015, 0 NZ champions lol -- it's been incredibly boring competition wise the last few years, SVG is a great driver though.
Haley did a great job taking a shot to get the lead back, but SVG looked like he was super calm and just regained it back. That’s what really impressed me, he moved through the last couple passes without contact, just great driving and a fast car.
This is like comedy after watching Aussie V8 supercars 😂 First time I've watched NASCAR and only because svg was in it. Straight up knew he would kick ars🙂🇦🇺
What a finish! We've got some bloody good drivers down here in Australia and New Zealand. This was the perfect race for his debut given that we have a number of street races like this Down Under, but it's still bloody impressive having never raced the car - or any left hand drive - or seen the circuit before. I'm sure the learning curve will be steeper on ovals, but SVG is one of the most talented and versatile versatile drivers around at the most. Can't wait to see more! BTW, NASCAR and Indycar are killing it with the highlight videos. Formula 1 could learn a thing or two.
The weather didn't really let us see the full potential of this, but this was very entertaining, great on SVG. This could be special. I hope they make this even greater next time. Hopefully they add cheaper tickets to bring in more casual and new fans.
Chuck Van Gisbergen in any car you want and he will make it fly. The only thing that surprised me is that he didn’t punt anyone off on the way to victory. He is aggressive, but I have to admit he is awesome!
After seeing what Chicago did, and how little of a negqtive impact it had on the city, the City of Toronto should be contacting NASCAR to have a street race through an iconic portion of Toronto, there are a ton of Canadian race fans, nothing against the IndyCar layout around Exhibition Place, but those are far less exciting than the race in Chicago was. Toronto is the closest size Metropolitan city to Toronto (ironically as some may know, they are sister cities). It would be a great way to show off Toronto and it's iconic skyline.
Absolutely electrifying! A passionate quarterback with a fiery spirit, and his iconic 'start your engines' call. That's the kind of boundless enthusiasm that Chicago desperately needs to break free from the pit hole it's currently stuck in.
I cannot express, as a European Nascar fan, how fucking GREAT this is! Nascar in the rain in a street race! WOW! In my dream world, I would hope they one day would try and race ovals the other way around (clockwise) but I doubt that happens as the cars would need to be built for just that then.
1st win for an alum of the V-8 Supercars since Marcos Ambrose at Watkins Glen 11 years ago... drivers from the Supercars series can be more adaptable to the NASCAR Cup road races due to their expertise in driving heavy machinery like NASCAR stockers...
Just another Australian here. Watched this because of SVGs win. What do NASCAR fans think of the street circuit? They make for some fun racing. Great to see so many Americans commenting on this weekend's V8 Supercar round. Shane Van Gisbergen, International Motorsports Ambassador.
I have never doubted that NASCAR is all about going around a slightly curved straight full throttle all the way until the chequered flag, but look at this! They can go around the corners! Hats off to the Americans.
9:28 Talk about a big brain move. When SVG squeezes Haley to the inside thru the kink, knowing you can't hold it under braking into the next right hander. BOOM, cross under to the inside.
Would have been more Awesome if ALL the pit crews lined PIT ROW and gave SVG hi-fives like they did when Dale Sr. finally won the Daytona 500 after so many tries that failed !!!! Congrats S V G !!!!!!
@@armanjoeeel394 lo que demuestra que deben seguir corriendo en este tipo de circuitos para que no solo el show sea más interesante sino que la Nascar coja experiencia
Now imagine how much faster SVG could be if they were allowed to cater to his dominant side and custom built a car for him with a right hand side steering wheel with stick shift on his left side? he would have been at least another couple of seconds faster.
Love Nascar. It' a bit like Aussie Rules. The thought of a stage win is a bit like getting a point for missing the goal. Yes they add up. Lasting the distance is endurance racing. What happens in the mean time is entertainment.
First-time enjoyed watching the NASCAR races it was off the chart it's a shame bubba wasn't paying attention ended up getting smashed up. You really have to watch your mirrors. But it was a great race.
@@sweetnasty2423 Action yes, but if you appreciate Skill and not just turning left watch Bathurst. The Aussie V8 series is awesome. 300kph+ (190mph) into a chicane is nuts! for 6 hours! Bathurst is where it's at. To win that race you gotta have skills.
@@MikeBonner.2023i dunno about comments like these, everyone says ovals are easy but international stars have struggled to consistently win there. If it was really that easy why wouldn't any star from supercars, F1 or wherever just drop in and own everyone while making big bucks? Could it be the case that while its not as exciting to watch, theres nuance and difficulty involved in winning at oval style tracks?
8:34~8:37 Classic SVG passing manoeuvre, 👌 and in the wet. You are gunna have to look long n hard to find a better wet weather driver🥇🥇🥇. That sentence also works without the words (wet weather).
Its not "gentlemen start your engines" anymore. Maybe they could make exceptions for some of the old conventions. It wouldn't kill anyone to say "gentlemen".
I'm not a nascar consumer at all. BUT, if they start racing out the oval and more intricate street courses, then I might have to follow. Pls don't attack me I have no clue where they race normally 😂
If they could find a way to keep the cars from slipping under those tire, that would be a great addition. A lot of the cars would end up unscathed I think And could keep going.They look like they work great except that the car slides under them
There is a way to stop it slipping. Drive it properly. Watch SVG's graceful exits from the corners where he doesn't have problems with grip. He's a seasoned veteran of street racing in the wet and a class above the rest of the field here.
@@thesammyjenkinsexperience4996 So does that mean you want to see s v g race more undergreen flag conditions. That sounds like a more exciting race to me than throwing a yellow flag Because A car is stuck under some tires.
I can't remember the last time I cared about a Nascar race. I LOVED this one! Way to go Chicago, letting this happen. Way to go Nascar, trying something new.
I'm so happy that Americans are being exposed to what a awesome driver SVG is, he absolutely deserves this exposure to new fans, beautiful drive gizzy
Hope Nascar fans seek out V8 Super car series a bit more after this & Kiwi's vice versa. Great race & so happy for Van Gisbergen!
This highlights package is literally 12 minutes of crashes… is that all the yanks care about?

Im gonna be honest, I dont really know what is going on, but I kind of like it. It's different from the regular nascar.

That was a thrilling battle but unfortunately Haley overcooked it this time around. But props to him for giving it heaps against SVG!

Hopefully they add cheaper tickets to bring in more casual and new fans.
Weather made it better.
Take away stage racing and I (a casual) will be more interested.
Weather benefited SVG as he’s the only driver in the grid used to driving in wet conditions due to NASCAR traditionally only racing in dry conditions
@@thomasgrabkowski8283 uh... Jenson button was racing did you not see that

Didn't need to punt anyone.......he was that much faster that he could pass clean.......just racing his race like no one was in his way
Nope, SVG knows how to find the right line and how to control the car. Just superb
Best damn race ive ever seen. loved it. Hats off to Shane . Kyle Busch also showed such determination yesterday. way to go guys. everyone was great.
SVG is unstoppable here in Australia and he will be in America if he decides to enter Nascar full time.

90° turn on a racing track is a recipe for a pile up!
Yeah, all 5 of them
It isn't if you're a capable driver.
Argh!, a right turn how do do it?
More street racing, I'd become a fan .
Because it's relatable and also because they keep closing down racetracks everywhere.
Absolutely electrifying! A passionate quarterback with a fiery spirit, and his iconic 'start your engines' call. That's the kind of boundless enthusiasm that Chicago desperately needs to break free from the pit hole it's currently stuck in.
You can see how much more control Gizzy has all the Americans cars skating all over the road while Shane’s smooth as silk 🤙🇦🇺

No, I disagree oval racing is better. I like road course racing too but, it’s not better. But hey that’s me….
next lesson road course maybe they should try getting him for watkins glen 😁😁😁😁 awesome drive shane i knew you was going to kick ass
This was just normal for SVG, You should see him as a rallydriver !
I have never doubted that NASCAR is all about going around a slightly curved straight full throttle all the way until the chequered flag, but look at this! They can go around the corners! Hats off to the Americans.
In retrospect SVG would have been a pretty good bet, the dude is always full throttle, not shocked at all 🤙
And a master of wet conditions!
They need to do this more
If NASCAR was like this more often I'd watch in a heartbeat. Between this, the rovals and the dirt at Bristol NASCAR is starting to interest me
This lit af. I wish I would've known about this ahead of time.
Great race and nice highlight video!
9:28 Talk about a big brain move. When SVG squeezes Haley to the inside thru the kink, knowing you can't hold it under braking into the next right hander. BOOM, cross under to the inside.
That must have been the most enthusiastic "Gentlemen, start your engines" I've ever heard /s
what do you expect lol its Chicago

Now imagine how much faster SVG could be if they were allowed to cater to his dominant side and custom built a car for him with a right hand side steering wheel with stick shift on his left side? he would have been at least another couple of seconds faster.
That pretty much defeats the purpose of the sanctioning body. All the cars must be the same in composition.
Wicked job ,Shane.
Always loved the cars but not the ovals so I'm loving this!
If they do another one like that I want to watch it! Please target me with that an ad for that

I would watch more Nascar if it had more tracks like this and more road courses. The Ovals just don't offer the same action.
