After completing a record-breaking season, you'd think Scott McLaughlin would struggle to identify a moment that stood out.
Surprisingly, the Kiwi had no issue identifying one.
Across 32 races in 2019, McLaughlin claimed a record 18 wins, 16 pole positions, 22 podiums, 10 fastest laps and a 562-point buffer over compatriot Shane van Gisbergen in second place.
And on Sunday, the 26-year-old was officially crowned Supercars champion for a second time after the season's final race at Newcastle, having already put it mathematically beyond doubt at Sandown earlier this month.
Asked for the best moment of his season, McLaughlin said breaking Craig Lowndes' season wins record of 16 - set back in 1996 - was a moment he'll never forget.
"I genuinely believe it's the 18 wins," told Supercars Trackside.
"Getting the 17th win in New Zealand was a really proud moment, but I think any time, in this day and age, to win what we have... not only me, but Fabian's won two races to take us to 20.
"In this day and age, stuff is so common. Rattle guns, pit stops, cars don't break down, all that sort of stuff.
"For an organisation to go hard and go against the might of Triple Eight, who've been at the top for over 15 years, it's a very proud moment."
On top of winning the drivers' championship, he also helped Ford seal the manufacturers' championship and Shell V-Power Racing clinch the teams' title in Newcastle.
McLaughlin was also voted the most popular driver by Supercars.com users for the third straight year.
McLaughlin's 18th and final win of the season came at last month's Bathurst 1000. The Cantabrian was proud of the way he handled the closing stages of that race.
"I know Bathurst was a standout, but for me, I've never been so calm under what was a pretty tense point of the race," he explained.
"Jamie and I were both saving fuel, I had to stay in the tow, I kept hitting the number. I remember thinking '25-30 [laps] to go', I was worried how calm I was waiting for something to happen.
"I had to do my fuel and then the safety car happened, and it was a one-lap shootout, but I felt so calm.
"Everything that had built up over the last three years, what I learnt - with Emma Murray, my mind coach - everything happening away from the track, I knew this was the race where everything would come together.
"I was so proud of that."
After celebrating his title, McLaughlin will head to the United States next month to marry fiancé Karly Paone.
