The 2023 Supercars season comes to a close this weekend with a title showdown at the Vailo Adelaide 500.
Brodie Kostecki heads into the season finale with a hand on the trophy, a 131-point advantage meaning he simply needs a consistent weekend in Adelaide to seal a maiden title.
That would be a sensational outcome given this is only Kostecki’s third season as a full-timer and he came into the campaign without a single race win to his name.
The outside contender this weekend is Shane van Gisbergen, who will be looking to add a third consecutive title and fourth in total before he heads to the US to race NASCAR.
The weekend’s results will also determine the outcome in the teams’ championship, Erebus leading Triple Eight by 170 points.
There are four days of running at Adelaide with Supercars on track each day.
The Adelaide undercard features the Dunlop Series, Carrera Cup, Touring Car Masters, S5000, GT World Challenge Australia and V8 SuperUtes.
