Holden Racing Team’s Garth Tander has been penalised five grid positions for a driving infringement during this morning’s qualifying session. He was deemed to have held up Michael Caruso's Norton Nissan.
Tander – who slipped from ninth in the Championship to 12th after yesterday’s two races – is now reduced to starting from 23rd after a trying morning.
He yesterday qualified 20th for the second race but was unable to move forward over the 34 laps.
