We’ve got a Bathurst winner on this week’s edition of the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by the National Motor Racing Museum – and he’s a return visitor!

A lot has happened since Lee Holdsworth’s last visit to the podcast in early 2021, headlined by his Bathurst 1000 victory with Chaz Mostert at the end of that year, plus an unexpected swansong full-time Supercars season that netted him the Barry Sheene Medal.

For the final part of our two-part chat, we recap the extensive celebrations that followed his Bathurst win – including the Monday morning phone call from a rival team owner with an offer to race full-time in Supercars the next year!

Holdsworth talks about navigating changing his 2022 plans to drive for Grove Racing, his offer to race on into the Gen3 era full-time, working with a young Matt Payne, returning to Walkinshaw Andretti United for 2023 but knowing he had next to no chance of winning Bathurst, his return to Team 18 that would’ve seemed unlikely just a few years ago, and his new life outside of motorsport working in commercial real estate.
