'Absolutely gutted': Costly Mostert move ends in tears for Tickford Racing teammates Cameron Waters

The Bathurst 1000 has ended in tears for Cameron Waters and Chaz Mostert after both cars collided at the end of Conrod straight and went sliding into the sand trap.

Mostert has been hammered on social media for causing the accident when he tried to get down the inside of his Ford teammate but then changed his mind and made a switch on the outside of Waters' car.

The two drivers were in the top five at the time of the incident and were on track to finish on the podium.

"It's a disaster. An absolute disaster for Chaz Mostert," Neil Crompton said.

"They are both buried in the sand. I do not believe it. The respective crews will be ropeable.

"It's turned into a horror story for Chaz Mostert."

Waters told Fox Sports after the crash he and his father were both left in tears by the sudden end to his race.

"Just absolutely gutted. No words really, just disappointed," Waters said.

"This is s***, we were tracking along for a podium, we were fuel saving.

"I don't know what to say, the car was fast, we should have been on the podium.

"It's just s*** for the team, really."
