The pair came to blows multiple times during the finale of the Ipswich Super440, starting with what Wood considered a forceful pass from Brown at Turn 6.<\/p>\n
That left the Walkinshaw Andretti United star fuming, as detailed in Supercars\u2019 post-event radio recap video.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe just bumped and run me,\u201d Wood protested to engineer Richard Harris. \u201cThat has to be a penalty. Put that into the stewards.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wood subsequently tipped Brown into a spin at Turn 3, copping a 15-second penalty for his efforts. His initial response to the incident was apologetic.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m so sorry,\u201d Wood said to Harris, knowing that a penalty would be forthcoming. \u201cI was just in too hard. Oh my god.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
That separated the duo on track until the chequered flag, after which Brown came roaring through the field to remonstrate with the Kiwi.<\/p>\n
Brown drove to the inside of Wood into Turn 3 and the cars made contact when the latter eventually turned in.<\/p>\n
Wood then initiated a side-to-side clash at the exit of Turn 3. Brown reacted by flipping the bird at Wood, who began speaking as if the reigning champion could hear him.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou do the same shit all the time mate,\u201d Wood said as he looked over at Brown, claiming the reigning champion is a repeat offender when it comes to bump and run passes.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can\u2019t just drive with your front bar. Just because you\u2019ve got the #1 on doesn\u2019t mean you have priority.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2018I bookmarked it\u2019: Brown warns Wood of potential retaliation<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n Wood\u2019s engineer Harris responded: \u201cYou know what he\u2019s like, mate, he\u2019s a hot head. You\u2019re bigger than that, you\u2019re the bigger man.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s just being a peanut. He served you up as well, so\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n To which Wood responded: \u201c100 percent he did and got what he deserved.\u201d<\/p>\n Brown had a somewhat light-hearted take on the cool-down lap clash, as he reported back to engineer Andrew Edwards.<\/p>\n \u201cI didn\u2019t run into him, he turned into me,\u201d said Brown. \u201cI thought it was actually pretty funny.\u201d<\/p>\n The drivers gave their sides of the story after returning to pit lane<\/a>, while Brown later suggested he\u2019ll settle the score with the young charger at a later date.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Will Brown gave Ryan Wood the bird after Race 3 of the Century Batteries Ipswich Super440 at Queensland…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":99786,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[572],"tags":[64,63,806,805,803,804,40248,7499,85,7500,33552,14594],"class_list":["post-99785","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-motosport","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-motor","tag-motor-sports","tag-motosport","tag-motosports","tag-ryan-wood","tag-slot4","tag-sports","tag-triple-eight","tag-walkinshaw-andretti-united","tag-will-brown"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99785","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=99785"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99785\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/99786"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=99785"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=99785"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=99785"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
