Supercars to enjoy international stage at Albert Park

Supercars to enjoy international stage at Albert Park

2024 AGP_33A3460

After an entertaining season opener in Sydney last month, the Repco Supercars Championship returns this weekend on the nation’s biggest motorsport stage – the Formula 1 Louis Vuitton Australian Grand Prix 2025.

Having been a main part of the internationally renowned event for decades, this year’s MSS Security Melbourne SuperSprint has plenty of exciting narratives to keep the fans engaged across the four races.

Arguably the biggest news to occur in between rounds was the recent announcement of Aaron Love’s departure from Blanchard Racing Team, who has been replaced by 2022 FIA Motorsports Games Team Australia representative and current Super2 pilot, Aaron Cameron.

And while many people will be interested how Supercars’ newest recruit fairs on the streets of Albert Park, the battle at the top of the pack will certainly raise the most talking points.

Championship leader Cam Waters enjoyed a dream weekend at Eastern Creek, with a clean sweep of victories in the opener aboard his Tickford Mustang. However he now comes to an event that hasn’t been too kind to him in recent years – his last podium in Melbourne dating back to 2019.

The Victorian will undoubtedly want to continue his momentum this weekend, but will have the likes of Chaz Mostert, who is fresh from a unforgettable outing at the Race Of Champions, and the two Red Bull Ampol Racing entries of Will Brown and Broc Feeney – all of whom have won and appeared on the podium at Albert Park multiple times in the past three seasons.

As usual, Australia’s premier racing championship will have four races across the weekend, with its busiest day occurring on Thursday, where it will have a whopping five sessions, including the opening race for the round.

In addition to Supercars, Porsche Paynter Dixon Carrera Cup Australia will be the only other Australian Championship on the Formula 1 support card, with the two categories to be joined by the FIA Formula 2 Championship and FIA Formula 3 Championship.

The MSS Security Melbourne SuperSprint takes place at Albert Park Street Circuit as part of the Formula 1 Louis Vuitton Australian Grand Prix on 13-16 March.
