Shane van Gisbergen

New Zealander Shane van Gisbergen and co-driver Garth Tander have claimed a second Bathurst 1000 victory as a duo after surviving a frantic sprint finish in ...

"When Chaz got into second I got a bit worried because we know how fast he is here, but once the gap stayed at a second I knew we were OK." "I just can't thank the team enough. "I just wanna go and do another skid, that was sick," he told the ABC, having shredded his tyres in celebration.

The 33-year-old won at Mount Panorama for the second time in his career.

The Kiwi motor racing ace once again showed there's daylight between himself any everyone else in a Supercar, winning Australia's biggest event.

A beautiful mind crunching all the player stats. There was drama after the first corner with a number of cars colliding and spinning along mountain straight.

With 23 laps to go Evans’ partner Jack Smith clipped a wall at Reid Park and limped back to the pits, before retiring while Pither’s car was also losing a lot of pace and he was shown a mechanical black flag. With 100 of the 161 laps to go, the top three was Tander David Russell and Anton de Pasquale, with 24 of the 28 cars left in the race. Zak Best came out the worst and his race was already over, while Kiwi Jaxon Evans needed to get the front of his car covered with race tape to continue. When they restarted, with the racing coming down to a 38-lap shootout the top three was van Gisbergen, Brodie Kostecki and Chaz Mostert. * [Bathurst top 10 shootout cancelled, Cam Waters to start from pole position](https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/motorsport/130112380/bathurst-top-10-shootout-cancelled-cam-waters-to-start-from-pole-position?rm=a) [He also came third in his category and ninth overall in the WRC's Rally New Zealand ](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwj1mo_JyNL6AhV89jgGHa0uCtEQFnoECBAQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stuff.co.nz%2Fsport%2Fmotorsport%2F130048923%2Ffinlands-kalle-rovanper-creates-history-at-rally-nz-as-wrcs-youngest-champion&usg=AOvVaw1swVwPRiTpSej9N3hz_AQK)and now has won Bathurst again, to pick up a record-breaking 19th Supercars victory of the season, surpassing Scott McLaughlin.

"This is going to be one of the storylines of the day. The rest of them are all pit because they are in them are all pit because they are in the window." The cars are hard to get off the line. We had 10 of them in 2006 and a pile of Safety Car laps. Collision on the exits of The Chase. "It really emphasised the strategy of the race, because you almost have to put your co-drivers in at the start … Some of the stuff going on was just bad. "When I went back to second at Forrest's Elbow I mistimed the gear change. Here's what he had to say about the latest incident on his car. "The recovery vehicle plays a role in there. Campbell had nowhere to go when Goddard speared back onto the track and copped the heaviest hit. He should seal back-to-back crowns in the next round on the Gold Coast.

The New Zealander sealed a repeat of his 2020 triumph with Garth Tander on a day when six safety cars were deployed inside 61 laps.

He has room to extend his record with legs at the Gold Coast and Adelaide to come. He now has the most wins in a season with 19, eclipsing the previous record of 18 by Scott McLaughlin. Davison’s late crash meant his teammate and brother Alex’s record of finishing every start at Bathurst came to an end. “It’s a privilege to add to the tally of Holden wins,” van Gisbergen said. He veered across the track and was smashed into by Dale Wood’s Holden, and Matt Campbell’s Ford Mustang joined the pile-up. When racing resumed on lap five, Zane Goddard’s Mustang left the track as he attempted to overtake and lost control re-joining the tarmac.

Van Gisbergen started to stretch an advantage, setting a 2:06.2 to set the fastest lap of the race, to which Mostert responded with a 2:06.3 the next lap around. The top three began to escape, with Feeney holding up Waters, Holdsworth and the pair of Dick Johnson Mustangs, until a wide moment at The Chase allowed Waters and Holdsworth to pass. A mix of co-drivers and main-game drivers took the restart on lap 46, with Moffat stepping into the #6 trying to defend from the #99 Erebus car with Kostecki still at the wheel. On board replays suggested a missed downshift while braking for the Elbow caused the car to burst into wheelspin, with Nick unable to control the slide, tagging the wall on both sides of the track. The track began to dry on the resumption of action, with the #100 Dick Johnson Racing car with Tony D’Alberto at the wheel, as the only car not to stop. The fifth Safety Car of the afternoon was called immediately after, required to retrieve the #96 Brad Jones Racing Commodore from the gravel trap at Pit Entry. This backed up the group behind, with Mostert looking to break through, aborting a move at the Cutting before throwing it down the inside of Kostecki at the Elbow. Kostecki ran wide at the apex, getting on to the grass, and getting bogged in the sodden grass. Goddard speared across the track, colliding with the #8 Brad Jones Racing car of Dale Wood, and leaving Matt Campbell in the #26 Grove Racing Commodore nowhere to go. Whincup hit a puddle and burst into wheelspin at the same time De Pasquale put two wheels on the grass, and in the melee the #9 got a tap and spun ahead of the group, with #88 pitched into a spin as well. An alternate strategy to put Coulthard in against the main-game drivers to allow Mostert the opportunity to race against the co-drivers later in the race saw them finally break through the back end of the top 10, fighting again with the #99 Erebus Motorsport Commodore, and the #6 Tickford Racing Mustang. They had to contend with a 5 second penalty for an unsafe release early in the day, and were off strategy to try and compensate.
