Red Bull sights locked on Supercars rival

Watch out Scott McLaughlin, we're coming for you.

That's the Supercars championship warning issued by Red Bull Holden Racing Team following a dominant showing at the Townsville 400.

Shane Van Gisbergen's first race win since March on Sunday narrowed Ford driver McLaughlin's championship lead to 131 points while teammate Jamie Whincup has kept his title defence alive after a win on Saturday and a second-place finish on Sunday.

The seven-time champion, who pipped McLaughlin to the title last year in the final race of the season, is 403 points off the lead but has moved up to fourth after the Townsville weekend.
