Pre-season testing: What you need to know

Pre-season testing will be held across two different dates at separate venues in 2021.

On Friday 12 February, Queensland-based teams, along with Team Sydney, will test at Ipswich's Queensland Raceway.

Victorian-based teams, as well as Albury-based Brad Jones Racing, will hit the track at Winton Motor Raceway on Friday 19 February.

The tests will mark a vital chance for teams and drivers to prepare for the new season.

Neither day will be televised, but official pre-season testing can be followed with Supercars.com's live timing.

Both Queensland Raceway and Winton will be open to fans.

However, they will be restricted to public areas, with no paddock access.

All guests are required to sign in via a QR code at the gate for contact tracing.

The 2021 Repco Supercars Championship season opener, the Repco Mt Panorama 500, is scheduled across February 26-28.

Tickets for the first visit to Bathurst are available now.
