Finals Watch: Kostecki suddenly at risk, Wood fires into top 10

An unbelievable finish to the Snowy River Caravans Tasmania Super 440 was a stunning footnote on what could be a pivotal round in the destiny of the 2025 championship.

An imperious Broc Feeney fell just 0.05s short of a superb sweep, only missing out to Penrite Racing driver Matt Payne in the final metres of Race 13.

Payne came from the clouds to win a strategy thriller on Sunday, with Feeney mowing down the Penrite Mustang to set up a grandstand finish.

Triple Eight star Feeney scooped 304 of a maximum 315 points in Tasmania, setting the fastest lap in all three races and winning both Saturday sprints.

Crucially, Feeney powered from fourth to first in the standings, and with nearly every other driver striking trouble, he is now 355 points clear of the Finals cut-line at the midway point of the Repco Sprint Cup.

Will Brown lost the points lead, but managed to finish third on Sunday and end up 33 points behind Feeney. Brown was out-scored by Feeney by 94 points in Tasmania, marking a clear momentum swing at Triple Eight.

The biggest losers on the scoreboard were Cam Waters, Chaz Mostert, Brodie Kostecki and Anton De Pasquale, the latter falling from eighth to 12th in the points, and out of the top 10.

Waters was 34 points from the lead heading into Tasmania, and is now 91 down. Mostert and Kostecki were 86 and 111 down, and are now 250 and 298 down.

After being on the cusp of breaking into the top four, there is now genuine pressure on Kostecki to hang onto his Finals spot.

The Shell V-Power Racing Team driver is just 72 points ahead of 11th, which is occupied by PremiAir Racing's James Golding.

In what was a nightmare weekend for Dick Johnson Racing, Kostecki and Will Davison were last and second-last for the round points, finding trouble in all three races and being disqualified from the first Saturday race.

Kostecki finished 22nd, 12 laps down, after being tipped into a spin and into the concrete after a collision with Brad Jones Racing driver Bryce Fullwood. Davison finished 17th.

Mostert's Walkinshaw Andretti United teammate Ryan Wood benefited from De Pasquale's tough weekend to move into the top 10 for the first time, with the Kiwi just 71 points behind sixth-placed Thomas Randle.

The 2025 Repco Supercars Championship will resume at the Bosch Power Tools Perth Super 440 on June 6-8. Tickets are on sale now.

What is the Finals, and how do you make it?

From 2025, Supercars drivers will take an historic new path in the fight for championship glory. The 2025 Repco Supercars Championship will be held over 34 races across 13 rounds, in three different segments: Sprint Cup, Enduro Cup, and the Finals.

Finals for the 2025 championship occur post-Bathurst over the last three rounds at the Gold Coast, Sandown and Adelaide.

Only 10 drivers will be eligible for the Finals based on championship points from the regular season, which is all 27 races up to and including Bathurst, and 'Cup' winning eligibility.

What does that mean? Simply, the winners of the Sprint Cup and the Enduro Cup each have automatic entry into the Finals, and receive 25 bonus points to start the first round of the Finals with.

The remaining positions for the Finals are based on regular season championship points.

Each round is worth 300 points. There will also be five bonus points for the driver who sets the fastest lap in all Sprint Cup races. The fastest lap is only eligible for bonus points if the driver finishes in the top 15. These contribute to championship points for that round.
