The 2025 Repco Bathurst 1000 was a motor racing event for Supercars held 9 to 12 October 2025.2025 Repco Supercars Championship Race 27, Supplementary Regulations for Supercars, www.supercars.com, as archived at web.archive.org It was Race 27 of the 2025 Supercars Championship and took place at Mount Panorama Circuit in Bathurst, New South Wales, Australia, featuring a single race of 1000 kilometres.
Matthew Payne and Garth Tander claimed victory for Grove Racing, their very first win. It was the first win for Payne, while for Tander it was his sixth victory, the first since 2022 and first in a Ford. James Golding took the chequered flag first, however when there was five laps to go, Golding made contact with Cooper Murray, and ended up getting a post race five second penalty relegated him to third.
Background The event was the 68th running of the Bathurst 1000, which was first held at the Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit in 1960 as a 500-mile race for Australian-made standard production sedans, and marked the 65th time that the race was held at Mount Panorama. It was the 29th running of the "Australia 1000" race, which was first held after the organisational split between the Australian Racing Drivers Club and V8 Supercars Australia that saw two "Bathurst 1000" races contested in both 1997 and 1998.
Entering the weekend, Broc Feeney of Triple Eight Race Engineering was leading the season championship. This race also marked the last opportunity for drivers to qualify for the Final Series, a new championship format introduced at the beginning of the season. Brodie Kostecki and Todd Hazelwood entered the event as the defending race winners and competed together with Dick Johnson Racing, having moved from Erebus Motorsport at the end of 2024.
Entry list Twenty-seven cars were entered for the event - 16 sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaros and 11 seventh-generation Ford Mustangs. In addition to the twenty-four regular-season entries, three "wildcard" entrants joined the field – one each from Matt Stone Racing, Tickford Racing and Triple Eight Race Engineering.
Seven drivers made their Bathurst 1000 debut: Porsche Carrera Cup Australia champion Harri Jones, 2024 Super2 Series champion Zach Bates (son of eight time Bathurst 1000 starter Rick Bates), 2021 Super3 Series champion Nash Morris (son of 2014 Bathurst 1000 winner Paul Morris) and fellow Super2 Series drivers Lachlan Dalton, Rylan Gray, Jarrod Hughes and 2023 Super3 Series champion Jobe Stewart.
