Statement from Supercars: Parity

Supercars confirms that a parity review has been triggered in accordance with the Supercars Championship regulations.

The parity review system is designed to identify and evaluate any imbalances among the competing models. It works using the analysis of lap times across a number of races to determine whether a disparity exists.

The threshold to trigger a review must be achieved consistently over either five consecutive races or five of eight Championship races. These conditions were met following the final race in Darwin.

Supercars CEO Shane Howard explained next steps:

“The parity review system has been a foundation of the parity assessment throughout the championship over many years.

“Now that a review has been triggered, we have commenced the nominated process.  

“Supercars have met and are working with both Homologating Teams to formulate appropriate recommendations for a parity adjustment.”
