Just for correction, he helped start a new race in competition to the Bathurst 1000, and this new race in 2016 was bigger than the 1996 Bathurst 1000.... no reason to think the 2016 Bathurst 1000 wouldn't have been as big as the 2016 Supercheap Auto 1000 was though if unfettled... I guess we'll never know?

Good question.... this move would follow in the footsteps of Eurosport who has owned the WTCC since it's rebirth in 2005 (and owned the re-birthed ETCC from 2001 to 2004 that morphed into the WTCC)
I would assume Fox Sports the channel wouldn't be the buyer would it, but Foxtel itself?
