Kostecki leads as Supercars hits New Zealand
Brodie Kostecki took the lead in Melbourne, on the back of three race wins. Broc Feeney and Matt Payne led throughout the weekend, but incidents and DNFs dropped them back. The big winner was Cam Waters, who despite finishing no better than third in all seven races, sits 28 points off the lead.
