NZ duo withstand the heat to top fiery Darwin practice
Kiwi drivers Andre Heimgartner and Ryan Wood have kept their cool to set the pace in a fiery first day of Supercars action in Darwin.
Heimgartner notched the fastest lap on Friday, steering his Brad Jones Racing (BJR) Camaro around the Hidden Valley Raceway track in one minute and 6.631 seconds during the second practice session.
Wood trailed Heimgartner by six-hundredths of a second, with reigning series champion Will Brown just three ten-thousandths of a second behind him.
There was little to separate the grid, with less than seven-tenths of a second between first and 25th.
It was a promising outing for BJR, who sit third from bottom on the team standings.
Heimgartner's teammates Jaxon Evans, Macauley Jones and Bryce Fullwood all managed top-10 times, after the trio also showed good pace the previous round in Perth.
"The last couple of rounds I was the only one that wasn't, so it's good to turn that around," Heimgartner said.
Despite a disappointing showing in the last couple of rounds, the 30-year-old remains in the top 10 on the championship standings with 647 points, trailing leader Broc Feeney by 543.
Wood had earlier topped the pace in the opening session, which ended with flames breaking out around the devilish opening turn.
Drivers tested the limits of Hidden Valley's challenging 2.9km circuit, with a procession of racers overshooting the long, loopy left-hander at turn one throughout the day.
A patch of parched grass was set alight after Brown ran his Camaro off the track there towards the end of the session.
Wood outpaced nearest challenger Feeney by more than two-tenths of a second in the first session with a lap of one minute and 7.059 seconds.
With temperatures expected to run into the 30s throughout the weekend - and exceeding 50 degrees inside the cars - drivers' endurance will be tested as much as their driving abilities.
Feeney was the first driver to run off on turn one, but recovered well.
The 22-year-old won the last two races in Perth and showed promising pace - also finishing eighth-fastest in practice two - as he looks to extend his 72-point gap over Triple Eight teammate Brown at the top of the leaderboard.
Darwin is a happy hunting ground for Feeney, having won both races at the racetrack last year and another race there in 2023.
Drivers will return for back-to-back qualifying sessions from 8.35am (ACST) on Saturday, ahead of two 120km races.
The final 200km race of the weekend on Sunday will determine who takes on the Darwin Triple Crown trophy.

Supercars leader calls for Darwin format reversal
Broc Feeney pulled off an unprecedented clean sweep to claim the Darwin Triple Crown, but a contentious rule change could cheapen the feat. With his dominant victory in race 19 of the Supercars season on Sunday, the Triple Eight prodigy became the first driver to win all three races at the Top End event since the three-race format was first introduced there in 2016. The trophy had been previously won by Scott McLaughlin - who succeeded in 2019 by claiming both races and a pole when the event was switched to a two-race format - and by Jamie Whincup, who won in 2020 when Supercars awarded the victory on round points during the COVID-19 pandemic. But this season, event organisers changed the format so the Triple Crown would be awarded to the driver who won the most points across the weekend, even if they did not sweep all three races. That change was made redundant by Feeney's hat-trick. But he called for the format to be reverted back to its previous structure to preserve the difficulty which makes it such a sought-after prize. "I just remember so clearly watching Scotty win it back in 2019 and just how hard it was to, I suppose, win it in its natural way," Feeney said. "I think it should probably go back to the old way. I don't think it should be the round winner, I think it should be either all three races or two races and the shootout. "Obviously Bathurst and the championship are the main ones, but I think just how difficult this one is to win, it was right up the top of my list. "So I've obviously had a good run here the last couple of years, and just really wanted to tick that box. So to do it this year is pretty awesome." Feeney's red hot weekend extended his lead in the standings to 183 points. But because of the new finals series - also introduced to the category this year - he can't rely on his points buffer to cement his claim for the Supercars title, despite sitting on eight race wins and nine poles from just 19 starts. The top 10 drivers will have their points reset at round 11 on the Gold Coast, with just 126 points separating 10 drivers between eighth and 18th in a tense race to make the cut-off. Grove Racing rookie Kai Allen has suddenly put his name right in the mix, after the breakout weekend of his young Supercars career. After securing a maiden podium with a third-place finish in Saturday's second race, the 19-year-old went one better by coming second to Feeney on Sunday. His confidence boosted, Allen is setting his sights on hauling in Feeney and his Red Bull teammate Will Brown to score his first race win. "To get some podiums this early is pretty cool. But yeah, it's not time to back off now. It's full steam ahead because we've got some Bulls to catch and they're still pretty quick," he said.

Unstoppable Feeney seals 'special' Darwin clean sweep
Broc Feeney's Supercars dominance reached new heights as he sealed a historic Darwin Triple Crown clean sweep and a fifth straight race win at a canter. The championship leader could not have hoped for a better weekend. Feeney pulled off a commanding drive from pole position to the chequered flag in the final race of the round on Sunday, after claiming both poles and races on Saturday. Sunday's 200km sprint was his easiest win of the treble, crossing the finish line a full eight seconds ahead of runner-up Kai Allen to extend his lead on the standings to a yawning 183 points. In doing so, Feeney became the first driver to win all three races to claim the Triple Crown. The prize was previously only awarded to a driver who managed the rare feat of winning all the races in the round, but a format change meant it would have gone to the driver who claimed the most points, even if they didn't manage a clean sweep. "I'm so proud. Obviously Bathurst and the championship are the main ones, but I think just how difficult this one is to win - it was right at the top of my list," Feeney said. With nine wins from 19 races, the 22-year-old is unstoppable at the moment. Even Craig Lowndes' record eight-race winning streak could be under threat if his form holds. Changing his car's set-up closer to the previous year's worked wonders after a slow start to the weekend in Friday practice, Feeney said. "And it's just been a rocket ever since," he said. "Not all the time when you have a super-fast car does everything go to plan, and we've able to do that this weekend. It's super special." His Triple Eight teammate Will Brown had a disappointing weekend, failing to qualify in the top 10 for all three races. Triple Eight co-owner Steve Blackmore said the team would examine what was causing his No.1 Camaro to struggle through qualifying. "But he had a super fast race car. I'd be surprised if there was anyone on the track who actually made more overtakes over the weekend than Will," Blackmore said. Brown recovered from 11th to finish fifth on Sunday. The reigning champion remains second in the standings, 14 points ahead of Grove Racing's Matt Payne, who finished third. After holding off Erebus driver Jack Le Brocq at the starting line, Feeney went about opening up a gap on the rest of the grid. He emerged behind Payne after pitting last on lap 30, but with fresher tyres immediately sped past the Grove Racing man back to the effective lead. Payne and his teenage teammate Allen battled it out for second spot, with the rookie making the most of his fresher tyres to overtake Payne in the closing laps. Allen enjoyed the best weekend of his young Supercars career, securing his second podium to improve on a maiden third-place finish on Saturday. Le Brocq's fourth-place finish was his equal best of the season. Erebus has struggled since the departure of Brodie Kostecki to Dick Johnson Racing, but jumped off the bottom of the team standings with the result. Despite qualifying ninth, championship contender Chaz Mostert was forced to start from pit lane in 24th position after stalling on the starting grid with clutch issues. He eventually recovered to finish 12th. Another big name to suffer calamity on Sunday was Cam Waters, who lost a tyre with three laps to go and limped home on three legs in last place. Jaxon Evans was ruled out of Sunday's action after his Brad Jones Racing Camaro suffered heavy damage in a crash on the first lap of Saturday's opening race. RACE 19 RESULTS: 1.
