Beau Beaton (Irving Vincent 1600) – Pro-Twins, 1st overall:
It’s always a treat to see Beau Beaton on the thumping Irving Vincent in the Pro-Twins ranks and Winton was no different. He raced to three victories in against a host of modern machines and, aside from a mechanical fault in the final Formula Oz race on the Ducati, he almost won all six races of his on Sunday.
