Broadcast details, first liveries revealed for Eseries

Fans from around the world will be able to tune in to the Supercars All Stars Eseries, with TEN Play and Sky Sports New Zealand joining as live broadcast partners.

Fox Sports 506 and Kayo had already been confirmed to telecast the 10-week series beginning April 8, with the new additions providing free-to-air and international options for viewers.

Kayo and TEN Play will have full races available to watch on demand via their streaming services after each event.

The Eseries, featuring all 25 Virgin Australia Supercars Championship drivers, will also be streamed internationally on Supercars’ Twitch channel as well as the Facebook pages of both the series and its teams.

Most teams are expected to run their current liveries in the opening round, with the paint schemes unveiled today for the Red Bull Holden Racing Team, Team Sydney and Penrite Racing.

“This series is about giving fans an opportunity to cheer for their favourite drivers from anywhere in the world,” said Nathan Prendergast, Supercars General Manager Television and Content.

“Drivers have really embraced the opportunity to continue racing via this All Star Series and we expect tough and exciting competition across the board.

“To bring fans more insights, we will have drivers chatting mid-race and interacting with the broadcast, like the Supercars Championship.

“We’ll be using webcams throughout the series, so fans watching at home can see their drivers mid-race.

“Our broadcast partners have embraced this competition and we’re thrilled they will be showcasing it live across their channels.”

The opening round will feature races at Phillip Island and Monza, with the full Eseries calendar to be released in due course.

The live weekly broadcast will be 7-9pm AEST (daylight savings finishes April 5).
