ON THIS DAY: April 5

Delve into the Speedcafe.com archives and rediscover the biggest stories over the past decade which had us talking, and have gone on to help shape our sport.

In 2014 an investigation was launched into the comments Russell Ingall made after Race 7 at Winton Raceway.

Ingall appeared on TV after the race, launching a tirade at officials after he was given a drive-through penalty.

The penalty had been handed down to Ingall for contact with David Wall and had scrapped his chances at a podium.

Take a trip down Speedcafe.com memory lane on this day, April 5.
