The 2008 Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 was the twelfth running of the Australian 1000 race, first held after the organisational split over the Bathurst 1000 that occurred in 1997. It was the 52nd race tracing its lineage back to the 1960 Armstrong 500 held at Phillip Island. The race, which was the tenth round of the 2008 V8 Supercar Championship Series, was held on the weekend of 9–12 October at the Mount Panorama Circuit just outside Bathurst, in New South Wales, Australia. Craig Lowndes, Jamie Whincup, driving a Ford BF Falcon for TeamVodafone, won the race for the third year in succession, the first 'three-peat' of Bathurst 1000 wins since 1984 when it was achieved by Lowndes' mentor, Peter Brock and present day Jack Daniel's Racing team principal, Larry Perkins for the Holden Dealer Team. == Driver changes == The following driver changes were made following the 2008 L&H 500: Alex Davison joined the Glenfords Racing team alongside regular driver Fabian Coulthard, replacing John McIntyre who substituted for Davison at the L&H 500. Karl Reindler replaced Grant Denyer at Ford Rising Stars Racing. Denyer suffered a spinal injury on 17 September while driving at the NSW Monster Truck Championships at the Dapto Showgrounds and will be sidelined for some months. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2008 Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
