It was a wet and wild day at The Bend that provided a spectacular race and an unexpected winner. How did it play out? Our daily podcast has it all covered.

What was forecast to be a small shower at midday turned into a deluge that turned The Bend 500 into an epic race.

Some co-drivers shone in the dark wintry conditions at the start and others didn't.

In the end, Walkinshaw TWG Racing burst from the clouds to turn what had been a quiet weekend into a one-three result in the first enduro of the season.

Elsewhere there was a mysterious lack of speed from the pole-sitting DJR Mustang, a double disqualification for BRT (after another Richie Stanaway wet weather masterclass) and heaps of other fascinating talking points.

Andrew van Leeuwen and Stefan Bartholomaeus unpack it all in the Sunday edition of the daily podcast.

Go behind the scenes of another explosive day of Supercars action on and off the track with the Saturday edition of our daily podcast.

It was another dramatic and unpredictable day of Supercars action at The Bend – and that was before the cars even hit the track.

As the Ford teams threatened legal action, Supercars backed down and unwound some of the perceived aero advantage it handed to GM last week.

It was a victory for the Blue Oval and a blow to the Chevrolet teams.
What did the major players on both sides have to say about it?

Andrew van Leeuwen and Stefan Bartholomaeus had those conversations and bring you the details.

They also cover the on-track action that saw Ford's cream rise to the top and lock out the first two rows of the grid for tomorrow's 500-kilometre race.

Flying Camaros, legal threats and brake dust – the Friday edition of our daily podcast unpacks a dramatic opening day at The Bend.

It was a Camaro sweep across the three practice sessions with Jayden Ojeda topping two and Bayley Hall on top in the co-driver session.

That, of course, comes off the back of the controversial parity upgrade given to the GM teams on the eve of the enduros.

So what does it mean?

Are the Mustangs and Supras out of the game?

Was there any sandbagging going on?

And what's the latest on the legal threats from Ford's top teams?

Andrew van Leeuwen and Stefan Bartholomaeus delve into it all.

They also explain the rush to get new brake pads into the country, talk track limits and a whole lot more.

The front aero change given to the Chevrolet teams on the eve of the 500-kilometre enduro opener at The Bend has rocked the Supercars paddock.

Ford's top teams Grove Racing and Triple Eight are particularly upset, going as far as threatening legal action over what they believe is a breach of the Teams Racing Charter.

So where do things really sit?

And how could they change ahead of the all-important Bathurst 1000?

Stefan Bartholomaeus was in the paddock to get the low-down and he and AVL unpack it all in detail.

They also talk brakes as a mad scramble takes place to rectify the potentially dangerous pad issues seen in Ipswich.

They are both explosive talking points and Full Credit to the News has them covered in detail.
