The Undercut is back, and it’s all about the Great Race – the 2025 Repco Bathurst 1000!
With thanks to the Shell Motorsport Collection, Aaron Noonan, Jack Perkins, and James Moffat break down all of the big issues as we head to Mount Panorama for motorsport’s biggest event.
Who will win, who are the darkhorses, museum pieces on the racetrack, and much more.
The team also takes a deep dive into the archives to look at Jack and Moff’s first Bathurst 1000 podium finishes.
There’s the latest on Supercars’ safety car changes, plus the latest from the silly season driver market, while the subject of testing comes under the microscope.
Then there’s our City Rural Classic Car – the VF Commodore that took Will Davison and Jonathan Webb to the closest competitive victory in the Bathurst 1000 back in 2016, and our Top 5 delivered by Shell counts down
some of the biggest moments from the history of the V8 Utes at Mount Panorama.
This is V8 Sleuth’s look at the world of Supercars, with the angles you don’t and won’t get anywhere else, with the analysis and numbers to
back them up!
