New to Kayo?Brown will arrive on Sunday with a reduced 171-point lead over teammate Feeney, with Waters hanging onto the title fight by his fingernails, trailing by 410 points with 450 remaining. Payne was caught in a sandwich between Brown and Kostecki around Turn 4, before Jack Le Brocq and Ryan Wood both ended lap 1 at the end of the train after picking up damage. Le Brocq was forced into the garage with a bent toe link, with Wood understeering into the Turn 11 tyre barriers.

Feeney got by the Penrite Ford into Turn 4, with Randle challenging Stanaway into the beach chicane. Randle gave Stanaway a hit at the same corner one lap later, and despite attempting a redress, Reynolds, Payne and Brown closed in. On lap 16, Randle finally got by Stanaway at Turn 4. At the end of the first pit cycle, Waters and Randle held a Tickford one-two, ahead of Feeney, Mostert, Payne, Reynolds, Brown, Stanaway, Kostecki and Andre Heimgartner. Golding, meanwhile, languished down in 21st.

Feeney was first of the front-runners to stop on lap 56, with Mostert brought in on the next lap. The Mobil 1 Optus Ford baulked in the lane and was passed by Payne in the lane, losing several seconds and a swag of positions.
