BREAKING: And it's all over - Mostert wins his second Bathurst 1000. Full story:

The Holden star repeatedly pulled away from the field in a frenetic final dash to the finish line and held his nerve in the final laps to win his second Peter Brock Trophy as the king of the mountain for 2021.

It completes the Walkinshaw Andretti United driver’s comeback from his traumatic Bathurst 2014 crash where he shattered bones in his leg.“Credit to the guys, this car has been speedy all weekend. Waters finished as the runner-up for the second consecutive year, while Whincup walks away from Supercars finishing agonisingly short of a podium finishing his final race.The finishing order for the 2021 Bathurst 1000.

He would have been almost untouchable if not for the tyre problem after he also secured pole position in Saturday’s Top 10 Shootout, breaking the lap record. It was a dream result for Mostert, who opened up a five second lead on Waters as van Gisbergen was forced to pit.

Chaz Mostert smashes Bathurst lap record to earn pole positionChaz Mostert has produced the fastest-ever time around the famed Mount Panorama circuit in a Top 10 Shootout to secure pole position for the Bathurst 1000. “Smashed” by 0.0143%. It’s a fantastic thing to break the record, but it was hardly “smashed.” Wow! Well done young man! A measly $5000 for achieving the prime spot of pole position? Their generosity is overwhelming.
