Sports fans are buckling up ahead of this weekend’s highly anticipated Darwin Triple Crown Championship Round, live and free on Seven, and 7plus.
Supercars teams have raised the bar ahead of the official introduction of the Indigenous
Round, with a host of incredible liveries unveiled ahead of the championship event.
Seven’s resident motorsport expert Mark Beretta will take viewers live to Hidden Valley
Raceway for a weekend jam-packed with action, kicking off from midday on Saturday
afternoon, before a second five-hour telecast on Sunday afternoon.
Supercars legends Garth Tander, Mark Skaife and Craig Lowndes will return to the
commentary box, alongside motorsport expert Neil Crompton, while fan favourites Mark
Larkham and Riana Crehan lead the pit lane coverage.
Seven’s world-class Supercars coverage will continue uninterrupted during commercial
breaks this weekend thanks to cutting-edge picture-in-picture (PiP) technology introduced
during the 2021 season.
Fans can tune in to the full broadcast live and free on Seven, 7mate and 7plus, while the full
replay will be available as catch-up on 7plus, along with Supercars highlights, docos and
other bonus content.
Arriving at the sixth stop on the championship tour this weekend, Shane Van Gisbergen is
firming as the man to beat following his impressive effort at Winton.
Leading the charge, Van Gisbergen holds a 281-point lead over Dick Johnson Racing’s
Anton De Pasquale while Cameron Waters sits a further 52 points behind in third.
The only Supercars event to feature drag racing, Darwin will also host Nitro Up North – the
grand finale of the Australian Top Fuel Championship – broadcast live and free on 7plus
from 5.30pm AEDT on Sunday.
Top Fuel dragsters are the quickest accelerating racing cars in the world and the fastest
sanctioned category of drag racing, with the fastest competitors reaching speeds over 500
kilometres an hour.
