Bathurst 12 Hour: Van Gisbergen’s Mercedes leads after first quarter
That prompted a round of stops for much of the field, Manthey EMA opting for a shorter fuel fill to help Thomas Preining, who replaced Campbell, take over the lead from van Gisbergen. This time the lead group all stayed out, the only notable stoppers the #75 SunEnergy1 Racing Mercedes and the #77 Craft-Bamboo Mercedes from sixth and seventh respectively.
The move proved unsuccessful, though, Engel ending up too wide and letting van der Linde sneak into fourth place. Valentino Rossi took over the #46 entry, which resumed in what was effectively third, while Dries Vanthoor jumped in the #32 BMW.
