Haltech V8 SuperUte Series Race 3 at The Bend has been red flagged due to kerb damage.

Pieces of the higher, inner kerb at Turn 12 either came loose or were pulled away entirely, prompting the stoppage.

Replays suggested Christopher Formosa dragged the pieces loose after a spin.

Aside from part of the kerb now being missing, the damage also leaves exposed bolts which could easily cause punctures.
