Supercars return to short Sydney version for SuperNight race

The Supercars Championship will return to the short version of the Sydney Motorsport Park for the first time in 22 years for the debut of the SuperNight format.

“The original concept for this event was to have something that was short, sharp and dynamic, and this circuit certainly fits with that,” said David Stuart, Supercars Sporting and Technical Director, to Supercars.com.

“It’s quite good that short circuit, with the corners that are there, so I think from a racing perspective it will be very good. Running a 300km race on the short circuit should bring plenty of action, as well as the strategy and drama in the pits, with three compulsory pitstops.”

The 300km race will be held in night conditions with floodlights on parts of the track on August 3-4th.
