V8 Supercars - Bathurst

Format: 1x1000 km | Length: 6,2 km

Presentation

This track sets the standard all others wish they could meet. The Mount Panorama Circuit is a legend and there is no other like it anywhere in the world. In Australia it has attained cult status and an entire nation gathers as one in front of the television. The first half of the circuit includes the ultra-high speed Mountain Straight that leads to a spectacular up hill section along Reid Park. From the legendary Skyline loop the track heads downhill and is equal to anything found on a rally stage. And it doesn’t stop there, because the cars reach speeds nearing 300km/h on Conrod Straight before diving towards the “Chase” section… If you can only watch one V8 Supercars event this year this is the one!
