The Clipsal 500 Adelaide opens a new era in 2013 for the V8 Supercars including: the existing Ford Falcon, new Holden VF Commodore, new Nissan Altima (Pulsar), and the new Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG.

Channel Ten are covering the qualifying and racing this weekend as the majority of manufacturers and drivers go into this new season blindfolded.

As for the final word on the new VF Commodore... check out holden.com.au/pages/new-commodore

And...
Could this be a visual hint in to the new SS?

Daaaammmm... Those Mercs sound fircken awsome.

I saw one of the drivers of a merc (not sure who it was) complaining of getting hot feet, So he stopped in the pits and they taped padding onto the bottom of his shoes.lol
The commentators were saying the pedals can get up to temps of 90 degrees.

Was hoping that Fabian Coulthard would take out the first race.

I think the mercs sound like crap. Heard them at the creek. Its v8supercsrs not GT cars. It is suppose to sound like a v8...

Well done to lowndes dominant display of skill.

The drivers cant adjust the roll centres etc anymore. Lowndes managed to drive around that.

Formula 1 cars are a v8. I'm assuming the bundy or vb put your hearing off a little.

Pretty sure its channel 7, I think channel 10 may do the Melbourne Grand Prix which is not a championship race
