Rowan Shepherd has
won the 2021 Best Bars Toyota 86 Championship after a
mesmerising final race at the Bruce McLaren Motorsport Park,
Taupo.
Shepherd needed to finish second
behind race winner Simon Evans and did exactly that, despite
Evans trying everything he could to force attacks from third
placed Brock Gilchrist and fourth placed Ronan Murphy to try
and push Shepherd back to where he wouldn’t have enough
points to beat Evans to the title.
Shepherd however,
held on in style and took the title by just five points -
his tally of 973 trumping Evans 968 after 15 hugely
competitive races.

With 12 races down and just three to go, the race
to the 2021 Best Bars Toyota 86 Championship title is still
wide open.
Either current series leader Rowan
Shepherd, early pace setter Ryan Wood or Simon Evans will
leave the Bruce McLaren Motorsport Park on Sunday as the
2021 Championship winner after one of the most closely
fought titles in the category s seven year
history.
It s the first time the circuit has been used
in the championship for four seasons and almost nobody in
the field has experience of a Toyota 86 at the
track.
Shepherd sits on 779 points heading to Taupo,
