David Reynolds awarded Barry Sheene Medal
Supercars larrikin David Reynolds has won his first Barry Sheene Medal, adding to his maiden Bathurst 1000 triumph earlier in the year.
The Holden star received the gong for best and fairest driver at the end-of-season gala in Sydney on Monday night, a day after finishing on the podium in the inaugural Newcastle 500.
Reynolds finished seventh in the championship, behind Holden's Jamie Whincip, who claimed his seventh title in dramatic fashion on Sunday, and Ford's Scott McLaughlin.
Reynolds, 32, handed one of the smallest teams in pit lane, Erebus Motorsport, their biggest win when he conquered the Great Race in October.
