Governing body Confederation of Australian Motor Sport (CAMS) is threatening to ban seven-time series champion Jamie Whincup before October’s Great Race after an extraordinary spray directed at stewards at the recent Auckland SuperSprint.
Jamie Whincup will be suspended and will not compete in the Great Race because of questioning the officials' professionalism following Sunday's Auckland race that was marred by safety car chaos.
Whincup is facing sanctions ranging from a race ban and a fine to "community service" similar to that imposed on Formula One driver Max Verstappen following an incident in Brazil last year.
Banning Whincup would be a massive call with the Holden star set to link with crowd favourite Craig Lowndes in next month's Bathurst 1000.
