2025 Destination NSW Sydney Test Day: What you need to know

The build-up to the 2025 Repco Supercars Championship takes on a different feel this year, with a full-field test in Sydney adding to the regular pre-event schedule.

The Destination NSW Sydney Test Day will see 25 cars on track together for the first time; all 24 full-time Repco Supercars Championship entries, and Matt Stone Racing's wildcard.

Drivers and cars will take to Sydney Motorsport Park on Wednesday February 19, for a combined seven hours of on-track running.

The day will mark a vital chance for teams and drivers to prepare for the new season, and give fans their first look at the full 2025 field in action.

That includes the first full hit-out for Brodie Kostecki aboard his Dick Johnson Racing Ford, Richie Stanaway's PremiAir Racing debut and Anton De Pasquale's new-look Team 18 Chevrolet.
