Dubbed Supercars: Road to Glory, the doco was commissioned by Supercars CEO James Warburton to capture the drama of the new format.
It was filmed and produced by Apatchie Media – the makers of the recent ‘Dark Horse’ doco on Erebus Motorsport.
Road to Glory consists of a single 80-minute episode, for which a series of trailers have been released by Supercars in recent weeks.
Its premiere via Amazon Prime is a first for the category, which holds broadcast rights deals with Fox Sports and the Seven Network.
The Amazon subscription service offers a 30-day free trial.
News of the Amazon deal was revealed by Warburton during a season launch at NEP studios in Sydney in which he also revealed Fox Sports has green-lit a new weekly show, Motorsport 360.
A documentary charting Toyota’s entry into the Supercars Championship has also been rolled out this week in the lead-up to the Sydney 500.
The single-episode, 60-minute documentary titled ‘From Clay to Carbon’ is now available on Kayo Sports and will feature on Seven’s platforms from Saturday.
