Will a 10 day ‘festival’ at Bathurst do just as good a job?

Nimbys and old cnts in the council who complain you can't get to the baths for two weeks. Don't worry about tourism or hospitality jobs, as long as boomer can get to the baths.

Idiots.

It seems they have declined a Sprint round but done a deal for an enduro for 2025:

We will host our first ever Supercars Endurance round at The Shell V-Power Motorsport Park in 2025!

Unfortunately we will not be on the Supercars calendar in 2024 however hosting an endurance round is a great result for our fans and spectators having long been a burning ambition for our entire team.
I'm just not sure about it, is it any more fun than the Paperclip?

2024 Calendar now out, along with TV broadcast info. Won't be Bending in 2024 but due to be back there in 2025 with an enduro - some thoughts here from Speedcafe on what that might mean for Sandown.

Symmons Plains in August, that is a great marketing strategy?

Tourer, just to clarify your comments, on the studded snow tyres?

Is that for the supercars or the patrons on the hill?

Cocho must be having a good laugh right about now.

So in an effort to get out of the red, Supercars has decided to water down the product, rather than looking for more income avenues.

I'm not one to side with the doomsayers, but they maybe right this time...

12 Rounds is seriously pathetic for what are supposed to be full time professional racing drivers. The bare minimum to satisfy the TV contract is all it is. The sport really is in it's death throws.

So when The Bend replaces Sandown in 2025 does that mean that Albert Park will be the only Victorian round?

Too early to know - will depend on a lot of factors between now & then I expect. Sandown might still be in use & could host a sprint round, or Winton or PI deals could be done.

Crowd numbers are down, enough to be below the threshold of making money, thus less rounds = less loss

No, Shane Howard has already told Foges Podcast that they are building for a big 2025!!

In 2015 Foxtel saved the series, sounds like in 2025 it’ll be overseas events saving the series……
