Supercars will finish under lights on the Sunday evening of the 2024 Goodyear AutoCare Sydney SuperNight with the race start and finish time shifted back an hour to take advantage of twilight racing.

Saturday’s annual night race in Sydney has become one of the most anticipated events on the calendar, and in 2024 the July event will feature a twilight Sunday race that will start late afternoon and also finish under lights.

While the timings of the track schedule is still to be confirmed, Supercars Head of Television Nathan Prendergast said it’s great news to be finishing under lights twice at the event this year.

“Night racing at Sydney Motorsport Park has become one of the highlights of the year, for fans and for viewers watching at home from around the globe.

“We believe this decision improves the overall quality of the on-track show and will bring fans fireworks at Sydney Motorsport Park as the winners cross the finish line in both races.”

Formats for the 2024 Goodyear AutoCare Sydney SuperNight will remain as planned, with a 90-minute practice session on the Friday of the event, followed by Boost Mobile Qualifying and a Top Ten Shootout on Saturday, prior to Saturday night’s 200km race.

Sunday will consist of one Qualifying session, a Top Ten Shootout and the twilight race, also 200km in length.

This year’s event in Sydney will feature five additional categories on the support card: the Porsche Carrera Cup, Toyota Gazoo Racing 86 Series, V8 SuperUtes, Touring Car Masters and Sports Sedans.

Matt Stone Racing will have a double celebration in Sydney. It will be the squad’s 200th race start, and driver Nick Percat, a previous race winner in Sydney, will celebrate his 150th round start in Supercars.

The event will be broadcast exclusively live and ad free on Foxtel and Kayo, highlights will be broadcast on the Seven Network and 7plus.
