#7 Bentley Team M-Sport wins 2020 Bathurst 12-Hour

While Australians are still coping with the ongoing bushfire threats in the summer, that doesn't stop Mount Panorama from hosting their annual Liqui Moly Bathurst 12 Hour endurance race and this year has proven to be as scorching as the ongoing wildfires that plagued the Land Down Under recently, making it more challenging for the drivers to survive through half a day of extreme motor racing.

This year's Bathurst 12 Hour saw plenty of action, drama, mishaps, and crashes, which are proven to be worth a challenge for the drivers as they struggle themselves from the wave of the green flag all the way through the zero hour of the annual endurance race and what an endurance race it is.

After an intense 12-hour fight for survival, the #7 Bentley Team M-Sport Continental GT, driven by Jules Gounon, Maxime Soulet, and Jordan Pepper, won this year's Liqui Moly Bathurst 12 Hour, a first for the British luxury car maker days after its home country left the European Union!

Second place goes to the #60 59Racing/ EMA Racing 720S GT3 and third place goes to the #888 Mercedes-AMG Team Triple Eight AMG GT3.
