Supercars

The Supercars Championship, also known as the Repco Supercars Championship under sponsorship and historically as V8 Supercars & Australian Touring Car Championship, is a touring car racing category in Australia and New Zealand, running as an International Series under Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile regulations, governing the sport. Supercars events take place in all Australian states and the Northern Territory, with the Australian Capital Territory formerly holding the Canberra 400. Usually, an international round is held in New Zealand, with events previously being held in China, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States. The Melbourne SuperSprint championship event is also held in support of the Australian Grand Prix. Race formats vary between each event, with sprint races between 100 and 200 kilometres in length, street races between 125 and 250 kilometres in length, and two-driver endurance races held at The Bend 500 and Bathurst. The series is broadcast in 137 countries and has an average event attendance of over 100,000. With over 285,000 in attendance annually, the Adelaide Grand Final is the most attended Supercars race in Australia.
