The V8 Supercars Championship is about to fire into action for another season with the 26-car field prepared for battle.
With liveries uncovered, cars tested and a host of driver and crew changes over the off-season, the field is set to launch the first competitive shots of 2016 at the signature Clipsal 500 this weekend.
For the first time since 2011, six-times V8 Supercars champion Jamie Whincup will revert to using #88 on his Triple Eight entry.
The honour of wearing #1 sees Mark Winterbottom defend his maiden crown in the Bottle-O Prodrive Racing Australia Falcon.
Will the title come down to a straight fight between Winterbottom and Whincup?
Or will another contender, such as new Red Bull signing Shane van Gisbergen or Winterbottom’s returning team-mate Chaz Mostert, step up?
Who will be triumphant and claim the 2016 V8 Supercars Championship trophy?
