Post-Race penalty leaves Jack LeBrocq with consecutive last-place finish at Hidden Valley

Credit: Supercars

Jack LeBrocq (#4 Sherrin Rentals Chevrolet) picked up the 22nd last-place finish of his career. This last-place finish, the second in consecutive races, came after a post-race penalty after 35 laps. The finish came in LeBrocq’s 284th start.

Jack LeBrocq is in his 9th full-time season, one of five 2018 rookies alongside Richie Stanaway, Anton De Pasquale, Todd Hazelwood, and James Golding. Only Jack LeBrocq and Anton De Pasquale have raced all 8 years. Hazelwood is currently co-driver with Brodie Kostecki. Richie Stanaway’s full-time career is over after being sacked by Premiair Hire Racing. Golding is back in the sport and doing well at the Blanchard Racing Team. Jack LeBrocq debuted with Tekno Autosports. He moved to Tickford in 2020 and won his first race with them. LeBrocq then moved to Matt Stone Racing in 2022. In 2023, he won his second race before moving to Erebus Motorsports in 2024. LeBrocq would move back to Matt Stone Racing in 2026.

Jack LeBrocq is also a 2-time last-place champion. Scott Pye is the only other driver to have that misfortune.

Jackson Walls (#11 Objective Ford) started last. Jobe Stewart (#9 Solo Energy/7-Eleven Chevrolet) fell to last off the start. Stewart stayed close to those in front initially.

Pit stops begin on Lap 6. Ryan Wood (#2 Truck Assist/NTI Toyota) was the first to pit and dropped to last. A lap later, Wood would pass Cameron Hill (#14 FGI Toyota) as the latter pitted.

Hill held last until Lap 14, when more drivers pitted. Jobe Stewart would pit that lap and fall behind Hill.

Stewart held last for six laps. Lap 20 saw Declan Fraser (#777 Premiair Hire/Nulon Chevrolet) pit and fall to last. Fraser jumped ahead of Jackson Walls (#11 Objective Ford) two laps later.

It looked like Walls would finish last for the 4th time this season. Until Jack LeBrocq (#4 Sherrin Rentals Chevrolet) spun David Reynolds (#20 Snowy River Caravans Chevrolet) at Turn 5 on Lap 32.

Reynolds struggled to get going. This triggered a 1-lap Safety Car on lap 33.

Jack LeBrocq would cop a 15-second time penalty. Which, thanks to a 1 lap dash, left him last.

Reynolds gained no places in the 1 lap dash and finished 23rd. The Bottom Five filled out with Jackson Walls (#11 Objective Ford), Rylan Gray (#38 Shell V-Power Ford) and Jobe Stewart (#9 Solo Energy/7-Eleven Chevrolet).

I must give shoutouts to Jayden Ojeda, who finished 9^th, and Macauley Jones who finished 10^th.

How Juniorgeneric defines a Last-Place finisher

Australian V8 LASTCAR'S Official Definition of a "Last-Place Finisher" (LPF)

For the purposes of the Australian V8 LASTCAR championship rankings and statistics, a "Last-Place Finisher" (LPF) is a driver(s) who, after qualifying for a V8 Supercars Championship Points-Paying race, the result must be confirmed from official sources, or unofficial sources failing that. Only one driver (or two in a endurance race) can be classified as the LPF for that race.

Meeting those requirements, the LPF can be any driver classified as such for any reason, including, but not limited to.
1) A "did not start" although it should be noted that there is a difference between my definition of "did not start" and Brock Beard's definition of "Did not Start".
For example, in Bathurst 2015 Chazz Mostert and Cameron Waters' #6 Pepsi Max Ford had a huge accident during practice that injured Mostert and all but wrote off the car. Car #6 was withdrawn, and therefore I don't count Mostert and Waters as finishing last. Under Brock Beard's definition, however, Mostert and Waters would have finished last instead of David Wall and Chris Pither.
2) An entrant who encounters an event once the race has started which prevents the driver(s) from finishing ahead of any other qualified entrants, including both DNFs and drivers who finish under power but laps down*

*Only when all the cars in the race are running ahead of the LPF

3) A decision to “start and park” the driver’s entry (Extremely rare in V8 Supercars)
(4) a disqualification handed down by V8 Supercars and/or track officials that subsequently classifies the driver(s) in the final position behind the unofficial LPF.

Australian V8 LASTCAR shall not consider the LPF as anything else, including but not limited too
1) Any DNQ's
2) Any driver's who's car withdrew before the race start.
3)The lowest-ranked driver who finishes the race under power (unless all cars finished under power, actually quite common in V8 Supercars)
4) A driver(s) who finished last initially, however post-race disqualifications usurped the spot.
5) A driver(s) who may be catagorised as finishing last for exhibition events (I may bring these back at some point in the near future, I need more accurate numbers for the events before I start them up again)
6) Anything in non-V8 Supercar Main game (again, insufficent historical data)
7) A driver who was running last when the checkered flag fell, however because they greeted the checkered flag but a drive who was in front of them at the end of the race, however was not running at the end of the race. In that instance the driver who doesn't finish the race will fall behind the driver whom is still running at the end of the race.

In the rare event where official results or a preponderance of unofficial results are later updated with more accurate information about who was the LPF for that event, Australian V8 LASTCAR rankings and statistics shall be updated to reflect that change.
