This weekend’s Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 endurance race at the iconic Mount Panorama circuit wasn’t easy for the debuting former three times World Superbike Champion Troy Bayliss.

Bayliss was scheduled to make his debut at the L&H 500 at Phillip Island last month until a mechanical failure on the race sighting lap forced him and co-driver Dean Fiore to watch the race from pit lane.

Bayliss and Fiore on the Paul Morris Motorsports-prepared Commodore #12 car with the livery of CRC product, Kitten Car Care Products, had trouble during Saturday morning practice when the car caught fire in the pits and then qualified last on the grid and in the race that took place in mixed weather conditions, incidents and safety cars ended up against the barriers.

Bayliss and Fiore DNF the race.
