Craig Lowndes says his two-year wait for a Supercars race win is easy to explain.
It's because it's gotten harder and harder to win a race.
Lowndes would know - his drought-ending success was his 106th in the sport.
The popular 43-year-old defied his age and relative form to win from pole position at Symmons Plains on Sunday.
He said it was a "great relief" to claim the result in Tasmania.
"As race drivers you always want to drive with confidence and belief but until you win races and do things ... it's always disappointing," he said.
