Bathurst 1000, Final Lap, Mostert Wins It
Chaz Mostert in his Ford has crossed the line first and won an unbelievable Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 with Paul Morris. Will this manufacturers win persuade Ford to continue racing in 2015? We wait and see.
Meanwhile, the race was filled with incidents and near misses as Mostert and Morris started from the last position on the grid after exclusion from qualifying, with Jamie Whincup in 23rd. An extraordinary race came down to the two on the final lap, Red Bull’s Whincup recovering from a lap down, but struggling on fuel as Pepsi Max’s Mostert attacked and got past on the final lap at Forrest’s Elbow.
