Davison vows to go all out in Adelaide

Armed with “nothing to lose”, Will Davison will go all out in a “full glory” Adelaide finale.

Both championships were decided at the Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500.

Shane van Gisbergen clinched the drivers’ title, and Red Bull Ampol Racing the teams’ title.

Davison banished the trauma of his Bathurst DNF with a solid run to third on Sunday.

The 40-year-old led the opening laps after a contentious chicane shortcut.

That shortcut angered van Gisbergen, who put a bold move on Davison after the red flag stoppage.

Only van Gisbergen has more podiums than Davison’s 14.

Heading to the final round in Adelaide, Davison — the 2012 Adelaide 500 winner — could prove disruptor to Holden's final round.

“We’ve got nothing to lose now,” Davison said.

“You go with the pace you’ve got, and Adelaide will be the same.

“It’s a full glory race, really. We’re all going for it, but that’s what we do every weekend, but nothing’s different.

“We’re going there to win, and go out on a high. Can’t wait to get back there, it’s an awesome event.

“Sandown, New Zealand, we had some great race-winning speed.

“Adelaide, I dunno… new surface, a few unknowns until we get there.

“We’ll be going all out.”

Davison defended van Gisbergen in the early laps following the restart, with the latter hurrying along the #17.

It took a risky pass at Turn 11 for van Gisbergen to take the lead, and he never looked back.

The battle began right off the line as Davison was ht by Chaz Mostert and fired through the chicane.

Davison was adamant he didn’t get off the brake, saying he was unloaded by the contact and opted to avoid the sausage kerb.

“I definitely didn’t get off the brake,” Davison said.

“I got a better start, went pretty deep… I thought we'll just try and sneak around the outside there.

“Then I felt a little hit in the door on the side.

“Heading towards a huge sausage curb which breaks your car… I got bumped into there.

“I just stayed right and just thought I'd wait and see what was said.

“Sort of thought I was in front on entry wasn't a big deal. I was just avoiding going across and damaging my car, basically.

"I tried to make the corner, but I sort of got pushed."

The 2022 Repco Supercars Championship will conclude on the Adelaide streets in December.
