Subsequent to claiming pole position and the Saturday race win, the reigning Bathurst 1000 victor was seldom troubled in the 25-minute-long race. “Jimmy (Golding) was on my tail, so I was trying to manage the tyres and gap as best as I could,” said Hazelwood. “I had to sacrifice a tyre yesterday, so we are essentially one tyre down in our tyre bank, so I was just trying to
