The Undercut – Ford’s best Bathurst chance?

The V8 Sleuth Podcast

Show Notes

THE Undercut returns, breaking down the latest news in the world of Supercars racing!

Aaron Noonan is joined once again by James Moffat following a big weekend at Queensland Raceway, where the Supercar Sprint Cup was wrapped up.

Has Ford ever been shorter odds favourites to win Bathurst than in 2026? Are there more questions than answers in David Cauchi re-joining Triple Eight?

Has QLD Raceway done enough to stay on the calendar? Does Supercars need a full-time GRM on the grid?

All that and more on the Ford Trade Club Burning Questions!

Then there is Moff’s big wildcard return to Mount Panorama this October, Touring Car Masters, and some incredible behind-the-scenes action with Peter Brock from Bathurst 1987 – his final win in the Great Race.

In Number Crunching, we look forward to The Bend, shootouts and DJR’s opportunity to break a 30-year-long hoodoo.

This week on The Workbench, Moff is put to the test – who has the most race wins in an ATCC/Supercars season?

This is V8 Sleuth’s look at the world of Supercars, with the angles you don’t and won’t get anywhere else, with the analysis and numbers to back them up!
