Paul Martin, event motorsport operations manager, was keen to see the decorated field hit the track.

"Considering the challenging environment in which we are staging the race this year, we are pleased with the field,” Martin said.

"There was no shying away from the fact that this was going to be a challenging year to run the event.

“We were committed to putting on the show and we are confident that it will be a very good race based on the field we have.

"It might not be the largest field in Bathurst 12 Hour history; however, it is extremely high quality.

"The quality and depth of talent throughout the grid is already world class, with several of the key international names yet to be unveiled.

"There’s no doubt in our minds that this year will be another memorable chapter in the history of the Bathurst 12 Hour.”

Cars will hit the track next Friday, which will be headlined by a first-ever night practice.
