Coulthard ready for fond Bathurst memories

Try as he might, Ford gun Fabian Coulthard just can't escape questions about that Bathurst 1000 crash.

Thirteen years after contesting his first Great Race, Coulthard has finally arrived at Mount Panorama as a major Bathurst 1000 contender.

The flying Kiwi is third in the championship standings, just 161 points behind leader and DJR Team Penske teammate Scott McLaughlin.

Coulthard, after earning DJR Team Penske's first win this year, is tipped to deliver famous owner Roger Penske his maiden Bathurst title.

Yet Coulthard was still asked on Wednesday about his infamous 2010 first lap rollover on the mountain - much to his amusement.
