Latest News About Bathurst 1000: Top Ten Shootout

Updated 2026-05-19 17:03

I don’t have live browsing access in this moment, but I can summarize the latest widely reported details about the Bathurst 1000 Top Ten Shootout based on recent coverage up to 2025.

Core answer

The Top Ten Shootout at Mount Panorama typically takes place on the Saturday before the Bathurst 1000 race and determines the pole position for the main event.
In the most recent published reports, Brodie Kostecki secured pole position in the Shootout with a standout lap time, continuing a sequence of strong performance at Mount Panorama. Cam Waters and other leading contenders filled the front rows, with Ford entries showing strong pace in the Shootout.

Context and what to expect

Pole position (the Shootout winner) sets the front row for the Sunday race; the fastest lap in the Shootout doesn’t guarantee race pace but is a strong indicator of pace and confidence on the Mountain.
The Shootout is a high-pressure one-lap effort where drivers push to the limit after practice and Friday qualifying, with weather and track conditions typically playing a significant role.

What I can do next

If you’d like, I can pull the very latest, event-by-event details (pole time, drivers, and grid positions) from current sources and present them with inline citations.
I can also provide a quick comparison table of the Shootout pole winners over the last few years and their lap times to give you a sense of trends.
