10 stats that mattered: Melbourne 400

The Repco Supercars Championship returned to the world stage at Albert Park.

The Beaurepaires Melbourne 400 was held on the undercard of the Australian Grand Prix.

Fittingly, the two drivers who have done all the winning so far in 2022 continued on their merry ways in Melbourne.

Shane van Gisbergen and Chaz Mostert shared the four wins, with the former taking home overall honours.

The title fight now moves to Perth, which like Albert Park, also last hosted Supercars in 2019. Buy your tickets now.

Supercars.com lists 10 key statistics that shaped the third round of the 2022 season.
