The Race 13 combatants were split by just 0.006s in Sunday's first 10-minute session.

The 27-car field returned for the Race 15 session, but it was the same front two at the front.

Van Gisbergen clocked a 1:18.491s and returned to pit lane for the final minutes of the session.

Waters hit the track for a final time attack, and put 0.149s on van Gisbergen's time.

"Massive confidence, particularly after yesterday," Waters said.

"It'll be awesome to be racing Shane again, I got a pretty good start yesterday.

"More of them will be nice... it'll be cool to get after it, hopefully we get on top again."

Cars returned to the track for Race 15 qualifying, and Van Gisbergen was straight on the pace with a 1:18.491s.

Van Gisbergen returned to the pits for the final minutes, with Waters rolling out of pit lane.

The Tickford ace clocked a 1:18.342s to steal pole, with Heimgartner impressing to third.

Brodie Kostecki, Winterbottom, Holdsworth and Mostert rounded out the top 10.
