Lowndes won an emotional second Bathurst.This was the first in a hat trick of wins with partner Jamie Whincup, before Lowndes' Triple Eight team switched to Holden and further victory in 2010. Lowndes' sixth title came in 2015 with Steven Richards, a partnership feared by some to be slowing down when the 2018 event rolled around.
