Win puts DJR with Triple Eight, WAU in exclusive club
Brodie Kostecki/Todd Hazelwood claimed DJR's 150th win at The Bend
DJR has 150 wins, 321 podiums, 149 pole positions since 1980 debut
Arch-rivals Triple Eight have 560 podiums, 276 wins and 183 poles
Dick Johnson Racing has joined two arch-rivals in a very exclusive club, with the Ford team celebrating 150 championship race wins.
Brodie Kostecki/Todd Hazelwood won the the AirTouch 500 at The Bend, helping Ford to its first Supercars enduro race win since the 2019 Bathurst 1000.
Only Triple Eight Race Engineering (276) and Walkinshaw Andretti United (193) have taken more championship race wins in Supercars, with Tickford Racing (90) closing on 100.
Hazelwood also became the 14th driver to taste victory in a DJR Ford in a points-paying race, with Scott McLaughlin (48), eponymous team owner Johnson (30) and the legendary John Bowe (30) leading the way.
DJR is also closing on 150 pole positions, with Kostecki heading to Mount Panorama aiming to become just the third driver to claim three consecutive Bathurst 1000 poles.
Kostecki claimed pole in 2023 and 2024 for Erebus Motorsport, winning the latter. Only Allan Moffat (1970-72) and Peter Brock (1977-1979) claimed three straight Great Race poles.
Should Kostecki score pole on October 11, he would be fourth outright for Bathurst 1000 poles behind Brock (six), Mark Skaife (five) and Moffat (four).
Track action at Mount Panorama commences on Thursday October 9.
