Supercars boss James Warburton has slammed the protest that could have robbed Will Davison and Jonathan Webb of this year's Bathurst 1000 as "un-Australian". The Confederation of Australian Motorsport (CAMS) officially crowned the pair Mount Panorama kings after Red Bull Racing Australia's appeal was dismissed. "Triple Eight applied to the court to amend its appeal to instead claim that the failed pass was not a breach of the driving standards at all, despite numerous prior admissions by Triple Eight that the failed pass was a breach. In another twist, Red Bull on Friday night submitted a new protest to challenge the severity of the fine. "This would be the same as the Melbourne Storm appealing the Sharks win because of something like a forward pass," Warburton said.
