For the fourth time in the history of the annual Bathurst touring car enduro, the result will be decided long after the chequered flag has flown and the champagne has been sprayed.

The #19 Tekno Autosports Holden VF Commodore of Will Davison and Jonathon Webb was initially awarded the victory, but was not the first car to cross the line after 1000km and the completion of the scheduled 161 laps.

That honour went to the #88 Red Bull Racing Australia entry from Triple Eight, driven by Jamie Whincup and Paul Dumbrell - a car which dominated virtually every session across the race week.

Whincup was behind the wheel while attempting to pass Volvo driver Scott McLaughlin for the lead in the closing stages of the race.
