Bathurst 1000

Awesome finish to the race. Overall, it wasn't the best 1000 I've seen, but the finish more than made up for it. I hope the American viewers enjoyed it!

Next up is the Gold Coast 600, which will also be shown live on Speed. It's on the same circuit that Champ Car used to run at Surfers Paradise and should be a really exciting event! Well worth a watch...

The race would have been better if D.Waltrip had not been there. The guy just could not figure out what to say. Even with that the final few laps were edge of your seat viewing.

last 5 laps were awesome no doubt about it

Great finish! I'm surprised it was such a clean race, no massive crashes, no proper rain. The last few laps more than made up for it.

Hey? Difficult? We don't do anything at all...pretty much the exact opposite of difficult if you ask me!

Poor Darryl Waltrip or whatever his name is on Speed, these cars have too much technology and right and then left hand turns........He's so confused and trying to provide useful commentary but isn't.
