Mate you missed one bloody good race!!!!!!
BATHURST is built on history and statistics and yesterday’s Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 threw up a range of telling numbers.
* Nick Percat is the first rookie winner of the race since Jacky Ickx in 1977. He becomes just the third rookie – after Ickx (1977) and Rauno Aaltonen (1966) to win the race at Bathurst.
* The win was the Holden Racing Team’s seventh Bathurst 1000 win after claiming victories in 1990, 1996, 2001, 2002, 2005 and 2009.
* Holden claimed its 28th victory in the Bathurst 1000.
* The Holden Racing Team won its 200th all-time race since being established in 1990.
* The finishing margin – 0.2917s – was the closest in history between competing cars. The previous closest was 0.5868s in 2006 between Craig Lowndes and Rick Kelly.
There have been two 1-2 ‘form finishes’ in 1977 and 2010 where the cars were closer going across the line, but they were obviously not competing with one another in the run to the finish.
* Cameron Waters broke Paul Dumbrell’s record as the youngest-ever driver to start the Bathurst 1000. At age 17 he broke it by just one week.
* There were nine different teams in the top 10 at the finish of the race. The Toll Holden Racing Team was the only team to have two cars in the top 10.
* Allan Simonsen became the first international driver (not including New Zealanders!) to finish on the podium in the Bathurst 1000 since Swede Rickard Rydell and Brit Matt Neal finished 1-2 in the 1998
AMP Bathurst 1000 Super Touring race.
* Second place for Craig Lowndes and Mark Skaife gave them their 10th Bathurst 1000 podium finish each. That brings them both to within two of record-holders Peter Brock,
Larry Perkins and Jim Richards (12 each).
* Amazingly, Lowndes and Skaife did not lead a lap all day.
* There were 19 cars on the lead lap at the end of the race – that equals the record set in 2010.
