Lights-to-flag victory for Kostecki

It’s been a lights-to-flag victory for Brodie Kostecki at the Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500 finale, winning from pole position, on a day the 2024 Repco Supercars Championship title fight shrunk from four to two contenders following late heartbreak for Ford star Chaz Mostert.

Kostecki, who won the Repco Bathurst 1000 two weeks ago, dominated the 85-lap race ahead of Triple Eight teammates Will Brown and Broc Feeney, who will now vie for the drivers’ championship next month in Adelaide. Mostert, however, was taken out of title contention in cruel fashion after being forced to pit for a third time, with Walkinshaw Andretti United mistakenly using the wrong fuel rig.

Heading to Adelaide on November 14-17, Brown leads Feeney by 180 points, with Mostert and Cam Waters out of contention, 309 and 428 points behind. Waters managed to finish fourth despite nursing front-end damage after hitting the tyre barriers at the first chicane.

The 2024 Repco Supercars Championship will be decided at the season-ending VAILO Adelaide 500 on November 14-17.
