Kostecki and Hazelwood claim Bathurst 1000 victory after leaders run out of fuel
Summary

Brodie Kostecki and Todd Hazelwood secured victory at the Supercars Bathurst 1000, taking place at Mount Panorama. The race, which had been competitive and run at record pace, shifted dramatically when leaders Anton De Pasquale and Lee Holdsworth experienced a fuel shortage on lap 157 of 161. Kostecki and Hazelwood's #17 Mustang, previously thought to be out of contention, capitalized on the misfortune of the frontrunners. The event's near-perfect conditions and lack of safety cars contributed to the intense finish, marking a significant win for Ford and Dick Johnson Racing.
