Here's the inboard footage of a lap around the exhilarating Mount Panorama Circuit, home of the prestigious Bathurst 1000 race, with live comments from driver Mark Skaife.

Skaife and teammate Craig Lowndes won Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 last year, sharing the wheel of the 650-horsepower, five-litre V8 Commodore VE2 of Team Vodafone.



Skaife, a five-time winner of the V8 Supercars Australian Championship series, won the event for the sixth time and clinched his 41st career round win.

Known as the "Great Race", the Bathurst 1000 is a traditional 1000 km test of drivers, teams and machines.

This gruelling Mount Panorama Circuit road course is 6.213-km long. The Conrod Straight alone is 1.916 km long and the circuit features an impressive elevation change of 174 metres.

Listen to Skaife's comments while he's driving! Enjoy!
