Broc Feeney diary | Adelaide

First win, last win for Holden, last race for these cars, my first season done — I don’t think it’s all sunk in yet.
Adelaide was crazy. We’d won the teams championship the round before and we couldn’t drop or gain many spots in the drivers championship, so we just had a bit of a swing — and it paid off.
But it was tough, and Saturday was bad. Both me and Shane (van Gisbergen) missed out on the shootout because of poor qualifying. The track was breaking up quite a lot and it was really difficult not to make any mistakes. We certainly had pace — I ended up in the fence twice and we still ended up eighth — but I really wasn’t happy with myself.
I didn’t feel at one with the car on Saturday, but I knew if we could make it a tiny bit better for Sunday, we could certainly be really competitive. Getting into the shootout set us up, and from the start I thought we had decent pace.
I knew if I could survive the corner for the first couple of laps I could just build into a rhythm…
The biggest moment was when they dropped me in the pits and I got out just in front of Chaz (Mostert) and Anton (de Pasquale). I was like, ‘Holy crap, I’m leading this race!’. We thought it was going to be quite difficult after the first safety car because everyone had a lot more fuel than I did, but we got past Will (Davison) and put a good gap on the field, which meant we came out with the race lead.
From there it…
