Holden ZB Commodore - #97 Shane van Gisbergen - Red Bull Ampol Racing - Winner, Race 1, 2021 Repco Mt Panorama 500 - 1:18 Model Car

Biante Model Cars are very pleased to present the 1:18 Holden ZB Commodore V8 Supercar of Triple Eight Race Engineering 's Red Bull Ampol Racing. The exclusive replica model as raced by Shane van Gisbergen to the win in the 2021 V8 Supercars Championship season-opening Race 1 of the Repco Mount Panorama 500.

For the first time since 1998, the opening race round at Adelaide was replaced with a two-race sprint at the home of Bathurst, Mount Panorama (the first time since 1996) after the Bathurst 12-hour endurance race was cancelled. It was also the first time that the Holden 's would race without the factory support, after General Motors retired the Holden name at the end of 2020.

Van Gisbergen picked up right where he left off in Bathurst, after claiming victory there in October he dominated the curtain-raiser and took victory in both Race 1 and Race 2. The New Zealander worked his way through numerous safety cars and his race-defining second pit-stop but the #97 car well in front and the WAUR and DJR cars just couldn 't catch him.

Van Gisbergen was able to back this premier race win up with both Pole Position and taking the chequered flag in Race 2 for the weekend, the perfect prelude to his Championship winning 2021 V8 Supercars season.

Produced in die-cast with fully opening parts, the 1:18 ZB V8 Supercars are exquisitely-crafted collectables with fine detail, high quality and perfectly replicated decals. They will be produced to order and as with all Biante 1:18 scale limited edition models, these items will come with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity and premium box packaging.
