The Supercars Championship says hello to the Land of the Long White Cloud for the first time in two years at a new venue in Taupō, and the Pitlane Punters Podcast returns for the first time in what feels like two years. A hell of a lot has happened in the last fortnight, headlined by the staggering comeback of reigning Supercars champion Brodie Kostecki to Erebus Motorsport, a reunion that had seemed almost impossible right up until the shock announcement. The boys also dissect the Supercars action from the Grand Prix, including handing out their staggeringly similar Driver of the Year points from the weekend, whilst a big call regarding Kostecki headlines the boys’ predictions for Taupō. The boys also take a sneak peak at the co-driver market for the Sandown 500 and Bathurst 1000, following confirmation that David Russell was the latest to join the mass exodus from Erebus. All that plus a look at Formula One and the Australian Rally Championship season opener at the Rally of Canberra, including a chat with the most successful driver in the history of the event, hometown hero Harry Bates.
