Mostert Ferrari stripped of Race 1 pole

The Supercars star put the #1 Arise Ferrari on a sensational pole for what was the first ever competitive session for both the car and team.

However it was a short-lived pole, Mostert quickly slapped with a five-place grid penalty for Race 1 for speeding in pitlane during his session.

The penalty doesn’t affect the car’s pole position for Sunday’s race.

Mostert and Talbot will now start the opener from sixth, while Brendon Leitch, who was fifth fastest in the session, drops to 10th on the grid for an identical penalty to Mostert.

Valentino Astuti, who was 10th, will drop three spots for speeding while Black Wolf Motorsport Mercedes drops to the back of the grid after being hit with five spots for speeding.
