该动作在星期五开始，整天举行了四场练习，为驾驶员准备周日的大型比赛。在圈圈计时器上的团队之间进行了大量来回之后，在Chase＃52 Marc V8的戏剧性撞车事故后，这一天在最后一次会议上被缩短了。

The Bathurst 12 Hour race kicked away in the early hours of Sunday morning. The team fought a hard battle, with the #888 AMG GT taking lead three hours into the race. The team looked prime for victory before a difficult stint for Shane Van Gisbergen saw the team deal with a drive-through penalty following a pit infringement. Sunday’s efforts ended with Broc Feeney crossing the chequered flag in 5^Th地方。Shane van Gisbergen和Broc Feeney以及以下要说的是艰苦的活动。

Broc Feeney："Today we just struggled for race pace quite a lot.

“马克西在今天早上和前几个比赛中的开始真的很强大，但随后我们白天逐渐消失了很多。

“The change made the car much better so we were a lot more comfortable after that.

"At the end, our pace was pretty similar to the guys on the podium, but we took too long to get there. Next year, we’ll hopefully be more competitive.”

Shane van Gisbergen："I never really got comfortable in the car, so today I tried my best but I didn’t have any speed on my side.

“第五很难为此感到高兴，但这仍然是一个还不错的结果。这是漫长的一天，很难说出来。

“我的队友投入了艰难的院子，做了一份出色的工作，所以我必须感谢他们。”
