360-degree video takes fans around Bathurst

Supercars has taken fans closer to the action than ever before in Bathurst.

Supercars.com and Bathurst 12 Hour have released a 360-degree video from within the cabin of the #222 Porsche.

The Scott Taylor-run car is one of two Porsches at this year's LIQUI MOLY Bathurst 12 Hour.

The 15-minute video was filmed from inside the car with Alex Davison at the wheel.

The video shows Davison wheeling the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia car during Friday's twilight Practice 4.

The video is now live on the Bathurst 12 Hour YouTube account.

Davison is sharing the car with Taylor, Supercars legend Craig Lowndes and Geoff Emery. Click here to donate to the PCFA.

The 360-degree video is interactive and allows fans to spin the picture round as if they were a passenger.

Fans can ride along with Davison and watch the sun set from Skyline.

Supercars Head of Digital Tom Sadler said: "One of Supercars’ goals this year was to bring fans closer to the action using 360 videos.

"We will produce more videos like this throughout the year from inside and outside the new Gen3 Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang, giving fans a close up look at what is to come in the future."
