It's Clipsal 500 time, baby Casey Stoner's wife, Adriana, with daughter Alessandra in the Red Bull pit garage. IT IS the birth of a new era in more ways than one for Mark Winterbottom and V8 Supercars newcomer Casey Stoner this week. Stoner was greeted by his wife Adriana and their smiling one-year-old daughter, Alessandra, in the team garage after he made his debut on four wheels at the Clipsal 500 yesterday. Little Alessandra showed no signs of being scared by the roar of a V8 Supercar engine as she happily played with her mother and walked around the track amid the 43,600 strong crowd. While for Winterbottom, who is set to lock down in the new four-way car manufacturer V8 Supercar war today, he not only has a "Car of the Future" in his garage but, maybe, also a "driver of the future" in his fast-growing stable at home. Winterbottom and his wife, Renee, took delivery of a future Ford star on February 8 when baby Austin joined his older brother Oliver, 2, in the Winterbottom clan. "There is a lot that's new about this season," Winterbottom said. But nothing newer and more exciting than my little baby, Austin. He was actually due on the official V8 Test day a couple of weeks back, but came a little early so I could go racing. He will be coming to his first race in a couple of weeks and I have no doubt the he and his brother, Oliver, will end up in go-karts soon and maybe a Ford, like me, one day. I am sure Austin will be too," Winterbottom said.
