Sydney Motorsport Park will be the
place to be over the next month
if you’ve missed the smell of
petroleum and the roar of dozens of V8
engines throughout lockdown.
Supercars will return to racing in
spectacular style, with four back-to-back
weekends of racing to be held at Sydney
Motorsport Park, starting this Friday,
October 29.
The Eastern Creek track’s various
layouts and dedicated lighting will be
used over the next four weekends to
produce a month-long spectacle for
motorsport fans in NSW and around
Australia.
After a four-month hiatus due to COVID
restrictions, Supercars will be back with
a bang for fans prior to the season ending
Bathurst 1000.
The grand finale for 2021 is now a sixday
event, starting on November 30 and
finishing on December 5.
Dubbed the Sydney Cup, multiple races
will be held at night over the next four
weeks and fans can expect a variation
in formats and regulations to put on the
best show ever seen at Sydney Motorsport
Park.
“What an exciting five-week period for
motorsport in NSW with five spectacular
events to round out the 2021 Supercars
Championship season,” Minister for
Western Sydney, Stuart Ayres said.
“Sydney Motorsport Park is a worldclass
venue and the NSW Government’s
investment in permanent lights has
created the unique opportunity for fans
to enjoy two weeks of thrilling night
racing at Eastern Creek.”
Supercars CEO Sean Seamer said it’s
fitting the sport returns to racing at
Sydney Motorsport Park, as they did in
2020.
“Those first races [last year] produced
some of the best entertainment in years,
and this time will be no different,” he
said.
“The venue is world-class and under its
new permanent lighting makes for spectacular
viewing for fans at the circuit and
watching at home. First and foremost, we
are happy to be back, but we will make
sure we use everything that SMSP has to
offer to put on the best possible show.”
Tickets for the first-ever Sydney Cup at
Sydney Motorsport Park are now on sale.
