Whincup Falcon BF – 2008 ATCC

-

Triple Eight was forced to bring forward a new BF Falcon (chassis 888-014) early in the 2008 season after Whincup’s Hamilton qualifying wipeout. It was a costly mistake which also threatened Whincup’s title bid, but in the new car Whincup quickly settled down to embark on a winning streak which delivered not only victory in the Sandown 500 and the Bathurst 1000 (with Lowndes alongside to score what was a Bathurst hattrick for the pair) but also the championsh­ip – Jamie’s rst of a record seven ATCC crowns.
