Supercars confirms 2024 calendar, adds endurance round for 2025

Supercars has revealed its 2024 calendar with a surprise twist, simultaneously confirming a 2025 endurance round at The Bend.

The Australian championship has lifted the lid on a 12-event schedule which will start at Bathurst between 23-25 February and conclude on the streets of Adelaide on 17 November.

The Bathurst 500 will form part of the Bathurst SuperFest, taking place the weekend following the GT 12 Hour event.

Supercars will then make its regular support appearance at the Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix in March before a visit to the category’s new home in New Zealand.

In August, it was confirmed that Supercars would cross the Tasman Sea in 2024 after making the trip just once since the start of the pandemic in 2020. This event will take place at recently renovated Taupo International Motorsport Park, with a contract in place to host the series until at least 2026.

Taupo will also see the debut of a new 400 format, with two races of 200km distance and mandatory refuelling.

The now-traditional Sydney SuperNight will be run between 20-21 July following races in Perth, Darwin and Townsville. Rounding out the action before enduro season is the Tasmania SuperSprint.

The 60th running of the Sandown 500 will be contested on 22 September with speculation mounting that this could mark the final running of the famous event.
