Heartbreak at Bathurst as leader runs out of fuel on final lap

Anton De Pasquale lost the lead of the Bathurst 1000 on the final lap after his vehicle ran out of fuel. The incident occurred during the closing moments of the race, resulting in a change of leadership just before the finish line.

Prior to the final lap, the race had been largely uneventful for the duration of the 150-lap event. The sudden mechanical failure of the leading car serves as a notable conclusion to the endurance race, which is historically recognized for dramatic late-race developments.
