For the second time this season the series will use its new-for-2025 Super440 format, split across three races.

Track action kicks off with two half-hour practice sessions on Friday before competitive running gets underway on Saturday.

Again teams will be forced to jump between the soft and super soft compound Dunlop tyres, although the order is reversed compared to Taupo.

At Symmons Plains, drivers will qualify and race on the super soft tyre for Race 1 and qualify and race on the soft tyre for Race 2, all on Saturday.

They will then return to the super soft for qualifying and the longer two-stop race on Sunday.

Teams will have just two sets of softs for the weekend.

That Sunday race has been shortened slightly due to concerns over fuel range.

When is the Tasmania Super440?

The third round of the 2025 Repco Supercars Championship takes place at Symmons Plains in Launceston, Tasmania, on May 9-11.

How does qualifying work?

Supercars will use two qualifying formats for the Tasmania Super440.

Format 2 will be used for Race 1 and Race 2. That will feature two, back-to-back 10-minute sessions. Part one will feature the full field. The top 10 cars will advance to part two, where they will have another 10 minutes to set the first five rows of the grid.

After the grid is set for Race 1, that format is immediately repeated for Race 2.

Format 3 will be used for Race 3. Part one of qualifying (Q1) will feature every car participating in a 10-minute session. At the end of 10 minutes, the top 18 cars will advance to part two (Q2). At the end of another 10 minutes, the top 10 drivers will advance to the Top 10 Shootout.

That single-lap dash will then determine the first five rows of the grid.
