The 2023 Supercars champion will be crowned on the streets of Adelaide this weekend at the Vailo Adelaide 500.
There are just two contenders remaining heading into the season finale, with Brodie Kostecki in the box seat to secure a maiden title.
The Erebus driver holds a 131-point advantage heading, which means and eighth and a ninth across the two races would be enough to see him crowned champion.
That means van Gisbergen faces an uphill battle if he’s two win a third straight Supercars title and fourth in total before heading to NASCAR next year.
