D’Alberto was running in 13th place when he touched the inside wall at Forrest’s Elbow on lap 54, firing the #17 Ford into the outside concrete.
It marked the end of a difficult weekend for D’Alberto and primary driver Will Davison, who qualified the car in 14th place.
DJR’s #17 entry was in the spotlight pre-event after Davison requested a chassis changing following struggles at recent rounds.
That meant retrieving the team’s spare car from the National Motor Racing Museum at Bathurst just weeks out from the Great Race.
