Ford VS Holden: Inside Australias' Racing Rivalry
Ford VS Holden: Inside Australias' Great Racing Rivalry
60 Minutes Australia 16 Feb 2022
Imagine if the head of Coca Cola announced he would rather drink Pepsi. Or if Steve Waugh turned up playing for England. Well, in the sport of Australian motor racing, that is exactly the shockwave that greeted Ford's announcement that they had poached champion driver Craig Lowndes from arch-rival Holden.
Now, Lowndes faces the race of his life - one that will be fought just as hard off the track as it will be on it. As Peter Overton reports, at stake are millions of dollars as two traditional enemies, Ford and Holden, slug it out for corporate supremacy.
