The Story So Far

Matt Payne and Garth Tander won a 2025 classic for Penrite Racing, surviving a wet, safety-car-strewn race and a dramatic three-way finish — Ford’s first Bathurst victory since 2019 and a sixth for veteran co-driver Tander. With Toyota joining Ford and Chevrolet on the grid in 2026, the Great Race shapes as one of the most open in years.

Bathurst 1000 Betting Markets

  • Outright race winner. Back the car/driver pairing to take the Peter Brock Trophy — framed well in advance.
  • Podium & top-10 finish. Safer plays than the outright on a race famous for attrition.
  • Manufacturer / team markets. Ford v Chevrolet v Toyota, and team-vs-team.
  • Head-to-head matchups. Pick one driver to finish ahead of another — strong value when the outright is hard to call.
  • Pole position & fastest lap. Markets around the Top 10 Shootout.

How to Approach Bathurst Betting

Bathurst rewards patience: outright prices move all year on Supercars form, and Mount Panorama’s attrition — weather, Safety Cars, the famous run to the line — makes podium and matchup markets the smart plays. Lock in antepost value on a fancied pairing, then trade the in-race markets across the four days.
