Michael Caruso breaks through for first TCR Australia race win in shortened final outing
2 days ago
Garry Rogers Motorsport is celebrating a win after a tough final race at Sydney Motorsport Park as Michael Caruso broke through for his first victory in the TCR Australia series, getting the lead early on and staying there in a safety car interrupted race.
Though the win was sweet for Caruso there’s no doubt some of the prize money will go towards a repair bill for the GRM squad as two of their Peugeot 308 TCR entries suffered damage early on in the race, being the cause of two extended safety car periods which saw only two full racing laps take place.

Chaz Mostert’s TCR Australia championship lead has been extended even further after the Melbourne Performance Centre driver took his third win from three races at Mount Panorama.
Joining international star Néstor Girolami as the only driver in the category’s history to complete a clean sweep of a round, Mostert was able to notch up his fifth win of the year aboard the Audi RS 3 LMS after a late scrap for the lead in an incident shortened final race.
For the third straight race, Aaron Cameron was able to get the jump on pole-sitter Mostert off the line, leading into Hell Corner aboard the Garry Rogers Motorsport prepared Peugeot 308 TCR. Mostert was able to stick with the GRM car but had Cameron’s team-mate Jordan Cox in the #5 Alfa Romeo Giulietta TCR keeping him honest behind.

TCR Australia championship leader Chaz Mostert has taking the Melbourne Performance Centre Audi RS 3 LMS to the top step of the podium for the fourth time in five races after a strong fightback in the second Saturday race in Bathurst.
Heading in to the race after taking the lead late in the opening outing from Aaron Cameron, Mostert again had to fight the Garry Rogers Motorsport Peugeot 308 driver to take his second win of the round, further extending his championship lead despite running with 60kg of ballast.
Just as it was in race one, Cameron got the jump on the outside of the front row to lead the pack into Turn 1, checking out to hold a lead of over two seconds at the end of the first tour.

Chaz Mostert completed a clean sweep of victories in the final TCR Australia race at Bathurst, once again having to pass Aaron Cameron to claim the win in a safety-car interrupted race.
As in the previous two races this weekend, Mostert initially lost out in his Audi to the fast-starting Peugeot of Cameron, slotting into second at the very start.
The race was only half a lap old when it had to be neutralised for the first time when the Alfa Romeo of Lee Holdsworth, running in sixth at the time, stopped on track with a fire, his Ashley Seward Motorsport team having changed the turbo on his car just before the race.
