De Pasquale's Race 1 shocker

De Pasquale's race comes to an abrupt end

Anton De Pasquale's maiden Shell V-Power Racing Team appearance didn't go to plan, with the 25-year-old crashing out of podium contention early in Race 1.

It came after he topped qualifying with the fastest lap of the weekend, before he recovered to fourth on Sunday.

Heimgartner's dicey re-entry

How close was that? Heimgartner's TERRIFYING re-entry

Andre Heimgartner's Bathurst opener nearly ended in tears and a bent Mustang after a Race 1 error.

Heimgartner locked up at Hell Corner and went down the escape road, and when he rejoined the race, he emerged in the path of Brodie Kostecki.

The Kelly Grove Racing driver copped a drive-through penalty for a dangerous re-entry, and finished 15th.

Slade’s Bathurst heartbreak

ALL ANGLES: Slade's terrifying crash

After a surprise front-row start in Race 1, Tim Slade’s Blanchard Racing Team debut turned from a fairytale to a nightmare following a high-speed accident chasing Will Davison.

So damaged was the car, that Slade’s weekend came to an abrupt halt, but not before the team left Bathurst with the admiration of the paddock.

Symmons spins

ALL ANGLES: Infamous hairpin strikes again

Living up to it's reputation as one of the most drama-inducing corners in Supercars, Tasmania’s Turn 4 hairpin delivered another hold-your-breath moment in Race 7.

After De Pasquale was turned around by Jack Le Brocq, the latter was sent across the front of the pack by Heimgartner, with Kosteckis Jake and Brodie taking avoiding action.
