    Jamie Whincup may still be penalised over his criticism of Auckland SuperSprint stewards

    Officials may yet still penalise Jamie Whincup despite the Supercars star expressing his regret over his scathing criticism of race stewards at the Auckland SuperSprint round


    The seven-time series champion has issued a statement admitting he was wrong to slam race officials following a safety car controversy in Sunday's 200 kilometre event at Pukekohe after being issued a "please explain" by the governing body.

    Whincup sensationally questioned the race officials' professionalism after he was incorrectly identified as the race leader and picked up by the safety car on Sunday.

    A frustrated Whincup passed the safety car without permission, resulting in a drive-through penalty before finishing a distant 16th.
