Qualifying stopped after Mostert crash

Defending Bathurst champion Chaz Mostert has been taken to hospital with a suspected broken leg after a terrifying accident in qualifying at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000.

Mostert was on his first lap in the 40-minute session when he glanced the wall at 16, crashed into 17 and rode the wall leading into 18, the Dipper.

Mostert was assisted from his car by paramedics and taken to the medical centre by ambulance.

There will be no further action on track today.

More to come.
