FROM FOX SPORTS: Holden Racing Team drivers Garth Tander and Will Davison broke Holden’s four-year drought and ended Ford’s chance at history with a thrilling Bathurst 1000 victory.
Tander and Davison overcame difficult, ever-changing weather conditions and won a game of pit-stop roulette to conquer the 1,000km, 161-lap race around Mt Panorama.
Ford duo Jamie Whincup and Craig Lowndes of Team Vodafone failed in their bid for an unprecedented fourth successive Bathurst – clutch problems cruelling them late in the race as they limped into fifth place.
Instead, it was a Holden 1-2-3, with Jason Richards and Cameron McConville second, and Lee Holdsworth and Michael Caruso third – Holden’s first win at Bathurst since 2005. MORE>
