The 2025 Repco Supercars Championship heads to the Northern Territory this weekend with crucial points on the line, as Broc Feeney again showed why it is his season to lose after his win at the Bosch Power Tools Perth Super 440.
Feeney’s fifth win of the season created more breathing room at the top of the Drivers’ Standings with 1,181 points, leading by 72 points ahead of Red Bull Ampol Racing/Triple Eight Race Engineering teammate Will Brown.
Drivers began arriving in Darwin on Tuesday ahead of the event’s first practice sessions being held on Friday, with crews establishing their bases at the picturesque Hidden Valley Raceway.
The driver who scores the most points across this weekend’s three races will be awarded the Darwin Triple Crown, a highly sought-after title to be claimed during the Supercars calendar.
For the first time, the event will also provide the backdrop for the Supercars’ Indigenous Round, where all 25 entered Supercars will sport unique indigenous-designed liveries for the event.
Tickford Racing driver Cam Waters enters this weekend fourth in the Drivers’ Championship.
Waters spoke at-length about the Triple Crown, a mantle he is eager to add to his driving resume.
“It’s awesome to be up here in Darwin, obviously the weather’s beautiful here with a great atmosphere,” Waters said.
“There is so many people who travel up here to Darwin to see the Supercars. There’s a lot of stuff obviously happening on track, but also lots happening off track as well.
“Everyone’s trying to hunt for that Triple Crown, but yeah for us, we’re trying to have a solid weekend and find some car speed which we’ve been lacking, but we’re keen to get back on the track.”
Darwin’s own Bryce Fullwood is also hoping the home ground advantage increases his odds of taking home the Darwin Triple Crown.
“It’s cool to see heaps of people down here,” Fullwood said.
“Racing here at home is really important to me, I feel like I get to really call this race mine, I have a lot of support here, I’m loving it, I’m lapping it up as much as I can.”
Driving begins Friday with two practice sessions, before racing begins Saturday with two 42-lap races.
The weekend concludes with a single 70-lap race on Sunday.
The driver who accumulates the most points over the three races across 21-22 June will be awarded the Darwin Triple Crown.
Broadcast coverage of the Darwin Triple Crown will be live on Foxtel and Kayo, alongside free-to-air on Seven and 7plus.
