It’s V8 SCOPS Bathurst Day!
Australia’s biggest single race, the V8 SCOPS Premier Series Bathurst 1000 has arrived. We’re excited to have three cars take part in the great race, lead by Dayne Warren and Sam Blacklock in the winning car from the last round at Imola, with Dayne returning to the field having missed the last race with ESeries commitments.
Dayne did an awesome job of Top Qualifying, making it a clean sweep for Altus Esports at the top of the Endurance Series Qualifying standings, however had a bit of a scruffy run by his standards in the Top 15 shootout, however will start P4 for the big race. There’s plenty of speed in the Logitech G Holden, so be sure to watch out for Dayne and Sam.
Also in the field is the Motum Simulation Holden of Simon Feigl and Adam Zeitinger, with both drivers coming back from a long V8SCOPS hiatus and will line up P27 on the grid.
Rounding out the Altus Esports pairings, is the ASTRO Gaming Ford of Beau Albert and Zachary Hanlin. Fresh off their maiden Top 10 finish at the last race at Imola, they are hopeful of another solid race, where they can both keep a clean car and buy a ticket to the last hour where anything can happen. They will start from 34th on the grid.
The green flag drops at 1pm AEST, and you can catch all of the action LIVE on the iRacing Esports Network, broadcasted by benchmark operators Sim Speed Esports Network.
