Scott McLaughlin has swept aside his horror Saturday to record yet another Supercars pole position at Sydney Motorsport Park.
McLaughlin charted his 13th pole of the year - tying the all-time record for a single season - in qualifying for Sunday's 200km race at Eastern Creek.
It's his seventh pole position in a row, and with nine races remaining, the 24-year-old series leader is likely to set an astonishing benchmark by season's end.
But his incredible pace stands in contrast to Saturday result.
McLaughlin crossed the line in second but was pinged by race officials for shunting Shane Van Gisbergen off the track and was reclassified into 21st.
