Payne Extends Supercars Lead in Perth

Matt Payne has extended his championship lead after securing a win and a second place at the Wanneroo Raceway in Perth.

The Grove Racing Ford driver started from pole position in both 50-lap races and, aside from a slow start in the opening race, made minimal errors. Payne's consistent performance allowed him to maintain his position at the top of the championship standings.

A safety car in race one briefly erased his lead, but the New Zealander recovered to claim victory and a strong second-place finish in the second race. freshyourfeel.com
