Bathurst record may not be beaten: Mostert

A Bathurst lap record set by Ford gun Scott McLaughlin may never be broken according to Supercars star Chaz Mostert, who claims qualifying will be "boring" next year due to technical changes.

Supercars series leader McLaughlin smashed his Mount Panorama lap record to claim pole position for Sunday's Bathurst 1000, clocking a blistering two minutes, 03.37 seconds.

It quickly earned comparisons with Supercars great and fellow Kiwi Greg Murphy's legendary 2003 "Lap of the Gods" effort which set the early benchmark for Bathurst qualifying heroics.

And Mostert reckoned McLaughlin's effort may never be equalled after Supercars announced 2020 changes that are set to cut lap times.
