Brodie Kostecki and Todd Hazelwood win Bathurst 1000

Brodie Kostecki and Todd Hazelwood have secured victory at the Bathurst 1000 in a dramatic conclusion to the race. The pair crossed the finish line in first place after a significant shift in momentum during the final moments of the event.

The race outcome was decided on the very last lap when Anton De Pasquale, who had been in a position to contend for the win, encountered a critical mechanical issue. De Pasquale was forced to stop on the track after running out of fuel, effectively ending his challenge for the top spot.

This victory marks the second time that Kostecki and Hazelwood have claimed the Bathurst 1000 title. The pair maintained a competitive pace throughout the event, positioning themselves to capitalize on the misfortune of their rivals in the closing stages.

The finish provided a high-stakes conclusion to the race, as the field navigated the final circuit under intense pressure. While De Pasquale’s fuel depletion altered the final standings, Kostecki and Hazelwood successfully navigated the remainder of the course to confirm their win.
