Starting from pole, Feeney fended off an early challenge from Aaron Cameron and led the majority of the race, ultimately denying a late-charging Brodie Kostecki by just 0.1 seconds in a photo finish.
The win was a vital bounce-back for the Red Bull Ampol Racing driver, who had struggled to match Kostecki's pace in the opening two races of the SuperSprint. The race was defined by high-stakes drama and multiple interventions from the Safety Car.
The first lap saw a major collision between Matthew Payne and James Golding, which left the championship leader with three punctures and an early retirement. Dispair continued for Will Brown, who was hit with a 30-second time penalty—his fourth penalty in six races—following a three-wide incident that sent Cooper Murray into the gravel.
Ryan Wood also saw his podium hopes vanish after a 30-second penalty for a clash that took Thomas Randle out of contention. Amidst the penalties and panel-rubbing, Cam Waters managed to navigate the debris to secure the final spot on the podium.
