Barram Diagnosed With Multiple Fractures After Bathurst 6 Hour Crash

Stewards are reviewing the crash following allegations of a double‑waved yellow breach.

Overview

  • The Bathurst 6 Hour crash, which happened Sunday at Mount Panorama, began when Grant Denyer’s Camaro touched Richard Barram’s Scirocco at Griffins Bend and pushed Barram into a stationary Mazda before the wall.
  • Doctors later found Barram had multiple broken ribs, a fractured vertebra, and several foot fractures, and his team says he is set for reconstructive surgery in Brisbane this week.
  • Denyer said he was A‑OK after about an hour of compulsory hospital checks and returned to filming Deal or No Deal with no major injuries.
  • Barram’s team blamed Denyer for passing under double‑waved yellow flags, which require drivers to slow and be ready to stop, and stewards are assessing data and accounts from the incident.
  • Barram’s Volkswagen was written off and Denyer’s heavily damaged Camaro was towed, while the driver of the stranded Mazda, Matt Kiss, avoided serious injury.
