Feeney wins ahead of Winterbottom

Broc Feeney has dominated the betr Darwin Triple Crown opener after overhauling pole-sitter James Golding in the opening laps and raced away to his fourth win of the season, and first since March’s Grand Prix.

Mark Winterbottom benefited from the Feeney/Golding overtake to score his second podium of the season, holding off championship leader Will Brown.

Highest placed Kiwi driver was Andre Heimgartner who finished in eighth.

The biggest mover was Mostert, who motored from 22nd on the grid to fifth, limiting the damage in his title bid.

Mostert crossed the line 0.4s behind Golding, with Cam Waters sixth on the road but demoted to 10th following a mid-race clash with Anton De Pasquale.

The end margin between Feeney and Winterbottom was a whopping 8.6763s, with Brown ultimately 1.9663s behind the Team 18 veteran.

Heading into Sunday, Feeney has slashed Brown’s lead from 136 to 115 points, with Mostert 193 points behind the #87 Red Bull Ampol Racing driver.

Track action will commence on Sunday with Boost Mobile Qualifying at 10:25am ACST/10:55am AEST, before the Boost Mobile Top Ten Shootout at 11:35am ACST/12:05pm AEST.

The final race of the weekend, the 48-lap Race 12, will get underway at 3:10pm ACST/3:40pm AEST.
