Cam Waters believes he did all he could to win Supercars' Darwin Triple Crown for the first time, although Anton De Pasquale's flawless driving secured victory in the final race at Hidden Valley Raceway.
After starting Sunday's 70-lap, 200km event in third place, Team 18's De Pasquale staved off a spirited effort from Grove Racing's Matt Payne to win by 1.4298 seconds in hot and humid conditions.
