A field of 26 cars and 52 drivers will contest the 2024 running of the Great Race, which is the showpiece event on the Supercars Championship schedule.
The category’s 24 full-time entries are joined by wildcards from Triple Eight Race Engineering and Matt Chahda Motorsport.
There are 16 Chevrolet Camaros and 10 Ford Mustangs in the field, each built to the Gen3 Supercars platform that debuted in 2023.
The field features 10 previous winners: Craig Lowndes (7 wins), Garth Tander (5), Jamie Whincup (4), Will Davison (2), Chaz Mostert (2), Nick Percat (1), Mark Winterbottom (1), David Reynolds (1), Lee Holdsworth (1) and Richie Stanaway (1).
There are also six Bathurst 1000 rookies: Ryan Wood (the only rookie primary driver), Aaron Cameron, Cameron Crick, Cameron McLeod, Brad Vaughan and Cooper Murray.
Just seven driver pairings carry over from 2024: Cam Waters/James Moffat, Anton De Pasquale/Tony D’Alberto, Mark Winterbottom/Michael Caruso, Mostert/Holdsworth, Broc Feeney/Jamie Whincup, Macauley Jones/Jordan Boys and Jack Le Brocq/Jayden Ojeda.
There are six New Zealanders – Andre Heimgartner, Jaxon Evans, Ryan Wood, Matt Payne, Richie Stanaway, Fabian Coulthard – and 46 Australians.
Stanaway is the only defending winner as Shane van Gisbergen, victor in three of the past four years, departed the category at the end of 2023 to embark on a career in NASCAR.
