The fastest lap recored for Mount Panorama.
The fastest lap ever recorded at Mount Panorama was achieved in March 2011. As part of a publicity exercise for the 2011 Australian Grand Prix and for the team's sponsors Vodafone, McLaren brought a Formula One car for Jenson Button and Craig Lowndes to drive around the track. The fastest lap was recorded by Button at 1:48.88, but as it was not recorded during an official race it does not count as the official lap record.[1] Similarly Allan Simonsen recorded a 2:04.9560 driving a GT3 specification Ferrari 458 at Sprint Bathurst in 2011,[2] an event classified by CAMS under NCR 22 as a Speed event[3] rather than a race.
We will see if the records will change in just 9 days.
