It's written in the supp. regs, to meet the requirements of the TV broadcaster. The race finish time of 17.15 + 1 lap gives the TV time to do a couple of interviews post race.
Even Bathurst has a time limit, 161 laps or 17.15 + 1 lap.
If we had bad weather we could have a Supercheap Auto's Bathurst 950.
