Camped on the mountain 9 times between 86 and 06 and should do it again for the 12 hour! Watching those first lap headlights come up and over Reid park would be awesome!

Ahhh the word "absolutely".... easily the most overused word on the internet. It's not good enough to say "night racing is stunning". It has to be "absolutely stunning".
I was live with the race until 3.20 am in Europe it was a great race up to that point . thanks for these Highlights that let me catch up with the last few hours events.
The 12 hour delivers once again, Bathurst delivers once again. If there’s an index of racetracks measuring banging races held on it, the race to banger ratio of Bathurst is topping that and you can’t tell me otherwise. Fantastic. Hopefully next year the Mustang GT3 will be there, make it happen, Ford!

awesome racing, instant classic. Was hoping for another 2019-esque Campbell win but this was brilliant stuff regardless. massive credit to Gounon for holding off Campbell despite the old tires
in this race event, all endurance is tested,, from the performance, engine, racer and also the team,, extraordinary,,,regards from taiwan guys,,"THE HEART OF ASIA"👍👍👍👍
What an amazing race. The finish was insane. Mozzie gave us great entertainement throughout the race (shame he wasn't shown on the highlights), Mamba Mercedes had commanding pace all race, respect for that send near the end, Manthey was right up there in a farewell race for the 991.2 GT3 R, and SunEnergy Mercedes got their strategy absolutely right. Congrats to Kenny, Jules and Luca for going back-to-back. That flame-liveried Mercedes is becoming something of a legend. Same goes Jules, 3 times in a row.
Bathurst is in the top 3 circuits in the world in my opinion.. Hell it might not have the grandeur of spa or the nurburg ring but for its size and the climb up and down the mountain alone it generates much more exciting racing than spa and the ring.. So I think it should actually be number 1.
Engel was FLYING during the last part. Absolute beast mode! He deserved that penalty for sure. I am surprised he did that though. He would have passed him probably on the next corner or straight after that anyways. Just amazing he caught up to the top two leaders after all that.
Racing this track is insane, I love seeing people passing on the mountain. Absolute mad lads, there really is only acouple turns and straights to make safe passes.
i dont know if people realise.. but if ENGEL just pitted his drivethrough instantly he could have won.. MAN he was driving crazy the last hour.. credits to Gounon! what a drive
@@Alex-tu9bh cuz he didnt got away from gounon at that time when he didnt pit. So he would atleast be fight or be 2nd atleast 2 laps before the end and not just catching, cuz he was suuuper suuper fast!
What a pity the Porsche didn't catch up to the leading AMG. Very exciting race and especially end of race. Matt Campbell, well done in this old car.!!!
It is incredible that after 12 hours of racing, the top 3 finish less than 2 seconds apart. Incredible circuit and incredible cars.
The way it just converged was beautiful, didn't even need a safety car for that.
2 more laps and there would have been a bit more action too. Shame for us but great for the chaps in 1st and 2nd haha
Yes between this race and the Daytona 24 few days ago we've had some great close finishes after so much racing. The beauty of endurance racing !
And that's while having the longest green flag period ever in the history of the race at just more than 4 and a half hours long.
@@romiarkan450 record quali time, record of over 2000kms, red bull v8 F1 lap, was a epic weekend
Went to Mount Panorama for all 3 days of this year's Bathurst 12 Hour. Absolutely fantastic! Best Bathurst 12 Hour ever!
Mate that race was epic!!! I so want to go next year, now I can drive
Neat, did you camp on the mountain?
@@josephmorgan4 See you there, Mate 🔥
@@AKK5I No I didn't. Stayed at a local hotel and just drove to the track every morning. It was worth it though!
@@Carguyaus00001 I look forward to it
One of the motorsport highlights of the year, that rolling start in the dark gives me goose bumps every time
Now that's pure Aussie madness, starting a race in the night
What an incredible track
Finally. what we needed. Now just need the average Joe manufacturers. Ford, Toyota, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda, Volkswagen.

My first time watching a Bathurst race and I'm already in love!!! What an awesome track and an even better race!!
Welcome to the gang! Bathurst is alway a thrill❤
is it safe to watch or are the audience typically rowdy and trouble makers?
Go and watch some of the old races from pre 2010 or even 2000, you can thank me later

Never a Bathurst 12 Hour without any hard core racing and incidents. What a great race to watch.
Camped on the mountain 9 times between 86 and 06 and should do it again for the 12 hour! Watching those first lap headlights come up and over Reid park would be awesome!
Takes me back to childhood and a slotcar set that had cars with headlights. Was cool
It is special but they need to push it back another 30mins so it's completely dark
12 hour is a much better experience than the 1000 .... insane. The parties and music start up like 2 hours before the race start, so much fun!
Long live Mt.Panorama, one of the greatest circuits on planet earth.
What a blast of a race.
This race category is a world beater. May it thrive!
I hope i can come to Australia one day, and i will definitly put the 12h on my to do list !!

Best road course and drivers in the world. Never disappoints!
I got up early to watch the whole race when it started, like that's a commitment right there i must say
YOU SEEN THAT F1 CAR??
@@jason4133 yes I did i saw it went around Bathurst
had an absolute blast this year and so chuffed for the 111 MARC guys. always fun seeing those cars in person
Oh awesome! A highlights package of all the incidents you guys managed to miss!!!
Another fantastic event. Well done to everyone involved! Hope to see more brands on the grid next year too 🙂
Gawd!!!!.............I love this sport!!
Nothing like Bathurst! 👏🏻 👍🏻👊🏻
27:10 that leg wrap tho 🔥
Must be a European thing
Top Race...Teams....Location an Track.....Bathurst is the Best racing Place after Nordschleife.....its the little Sister of the German track
Hopefully there will be a bigger field next year. Always love the 12hr and always around to watch it every year.
We need GT4's in there! At least 30 cars would make the even so much better. One of the races before, sports sedans had 50 cars!
@@bevanmcnicholl2525 too much GT4’s would make this place have 20 more mobile chicanes. would make bathurst incredibly dull.

Wait is porsche leaving?
@@OhKnow379 no, but the 991.2 GT3 R is a retiring model. It's replacement, the 992 GT3 R already made its debut at Daytona this year.
So much better than the 1000. Doesn't need a late safety car to be so exciting at the end. What a race!! AMG FTW!!
Mercedes out here winning left right and center. What a team and a brand
Love how the camera crew consistently missed the start of every single crash

Is it just me or are these drivers giving it their absolute all!
If I was Australian I'd be so proud of the incredible racing culture.
If only the Daytona Rolex 24 had this kind of coverage. Non stop racing instead of half commercials and half racing. This was great
This track always delivers!!!
This is an awesome race, better than last year for sure. Can't wait for next year.
Wonderful, thanks for the live stream!!!! not sure why other cars got little coverage except Merc..........................
What an opener.
Thank you!
I watched some of this race. It was lovely.
SOO much better than current f-1
What an incredible finish
Cool to see Rossi there!
Outstanding weekend all around tbh
Watched it for the first time ever! It was amazing!
You'll be back again. Last year was my 1st too. Epic
Thank you.

Awesome compilation of the highlights!
Bathurst is the most badass track ever!!!!
Thanks for the upload...
Great race BRILLIANT thank you very much
Honestly respect to Mercedes for always performing well in any motorsport their cars are in
The AMG is a beast at Bathurst, can't beat it here these days
@@bevanmcnicholl2525because they got 4.0 engine with a lot if torque and in straight it's extremely fast
this racing sim looks very realistic
Ok this joke is overused.
Those cars sound amazing. Wouldn't it be fantastic to drive one.😁😁😃😃
Man those AMGs sound tasty.
23:04" "That was probably a 9 and 10.5 width" 😂😂😂
it was great to watch :)) but a loooong night for me in GER
Great race like this deserves better camera work for the people watching at home.
27:37 Logo above glass ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,very nice
Damn these new cars look amazing
Just a ridiculous race, incredible drive from Gounon on old tyres and Engel? The guys an alien
Fast racing. Few race control disruptions. Top 3 cars finish within 2 seconds of each other. Another excellent race at Bathurst.
Incredible!! Top race.
Great racing. Love it
Imsa and WEC should take note of these highlights.
Only NBC that make highlights, IMSA themselves didn't.
Racing at its best 💪
Crazy having no cameras on the dipper.
Nice job 912! 🔥
The top 3 cars finished only 1.43 seconds is the best thing i ever see in 2023 Bathurst 12hrs.
6:37 Deitz was quoted as saying he forgot his sunglasses and the glare got him on this little slip up.
What a race!!
i dont know if people realise.. but if ENGEL just pitted his drivethrough instantly he could have won.. MAN he was driving crazy the last hour.. credits to Gounon! what a drive
How's that work ?
@@Alex-tu9bh cuz he didnt got away from gounon at that time when he didnt pit. So he would atleast be fight or be 2nd atleast 2 laps before the end and not just catching, cuz he was suuuper suuper fast!
@@t.bartels5992 He did pull away tho. 2 secs in 3 laps wasn't that much different towards his catch up pace at the end
What a race by Porsche 912. Hard to beat Jaminet & Campbell!
another good race on one of the world's best race tracks...
absolute robbery to call the 46 in for a "taillight"
Totally enjoyed it
Amazing race
Loved to see ~240kg on the roof of that AMG at the end of the video. as a Porsche mechanic, I have to say that it handled it very well
Mercedes still rocking the M159 motors , a true testament to this legendary motor that came about in 2010!!
u know race season has started when it starts with a 24 hrs of daytona and the week after is 12 hrs of bathurst
Dubai 24H
18:52 oh man that sound
There’s almost more carnage in the first three hours of the endurance race than in the total length of the 1000
What a pity the Porsche didn't catch up to the leading AMG. Very exciting race and especially end of race. Matt Campbell, well done in this old car.!!!
He got lucky, one more lap he would have been looking at P3, didn't you see who was coming on his bumper in the last lap?
He was lucky that was the final lap. One more and he would be in third instead
@@QF_Dan72 maybe
@@CanyonsCarver it's one thing to catch a car at bathurst, it's another to pass
SO GLAD ENGEL DIDN'T WIN DIRTY DRIVER
The metal grate showed great restraint this weekend👏
Possibly top 10 all time track.
this is beauty
3:05 There is only one line on Griffins, the dude behind should be black flagged. You may dive bomb like that on Gran Turismo 7 but not in real life.
Increíble circuito; es precioso.
