Shane van Gisbergen has revealed that a 'football' sized clump of rubber went close to ruining his charge for a third Bathurst 1000 crown.
The NASCAR-bound Kiwi scored a third Great Race crown today, he and Richie Stanaway gaining an early strategic advantage and dominating the rest of proceedings. It seemed like a more than comfortable win, the final margin after 161 laps a healthy 20 seconds. That was despite a nervous final two stints where van Gisbergen was concerned whether his car would make it to the finish.
Rubber marbles are known to be a huge issue with the new cars, particularly as there is no longer a closed under tray at the front. There was a case earlier in the weekend where rubber build-up knocked a drive belt off a Tickford Mustang's V8 motor, while other drivers were known to have large chunks of rubber in wheel arches and splitter.
