Supercars Adelaide: Kostecki seals title as Waters leads Ford 1-2-3-4
In the penultimate race of the year, three Ford Mustang drivers, Cam Waters, David Reynolds, and Thomas Randle, fought for the win while Kostecki, starting from pole position in his Erebus Motorsport Chevrolet Camaro, drove conservatively to secure the title with one race remaining. Shane van Gisbergen’s race ended early due to a collision between Will Brown and Anton De Pasquale, leaving Kostecki with a clear path to the championship. Waters took the lead from Reynolds and won the race, while Kostecki finished in sixth place, securing the provisional championship title. It was a memorable moment for Kostecki and his team owner Betty Klimenko, who has been involved in the venture for 13 years. Waters celebrated his win at Adelaide, a circuit he favors, and Reynolds settled for second place. Randle, starting from third, achieved his fourth podium finish in the past eight races. Chaz Mostert took fourth place, followed by Broc Feeney, who overtook Kostecki in the final laps. Both Erebus and Triple Eight now face all-night car rebuilds as they contend for the teams’ title in the final race of the season.
