Broc Feeney triumphed over his title rival Chaz Mostert in the second leg of the Adelaide Grand Final on Saturday, creating a thrilling setup for Sunday’s championship decider.
Feeney dominated the session, managing his pace and tyres with precision while staying ahead of Mostert throughout the race. The contest was tense but clean, reflecting the professionalism of both front-runners.
Mostert’s second place came after a surprising twist when Walkinshaw Andretti United’s Nick Percat fell out of contention, and Matt Stone Racing’s Cameron Hill fought to maintain position mid-pack.
Drivers’ standings were influenced dramatically when Thomas Wood made an unforced error that allowed Mostert to move into second place. That mistake also solidified Feeney’s advantage heading into the final race.
Feeney commented after the race:
"We knew we had to perform today, and the car was just incredible. The team nailed everything, so we’re in the fight now."
Mostert, meanwhile, acknowledged Feeney’s pace but remained upbeat:
"It’s going to be a big day tomorrow. We’re right there, and anything can happen in Adelaide."
The standings remain close, with Feeney narrowing Mostert’s points lead to create a winner-takes-all scenario for Sunday. The final race of the season promises a fierce showdown for the Supercars crown.
