More Supercars racing headlines 2026 Darwin schedule
100km sprint race added to Friday schedule
Support categories headlined by DUNLOP Super2 Series
More racing kilometres and a Friday afternoon sprint race highlight a revamped track schedule for the 2026 betr Darwin Triple Crown.
Supercars will race on all three days of the official Indigenous Round, with a 100km sprint race over 35 laps to be run on Friday, and dual 200km refuelling races on Saturday and Sunday.
The new format for Darwin sees an extra 60km of racing across the weekend, and mirrors the race format seen at Sydney to start the season, and will also be used at the NTI Townsville 500.
Saturday and Sunday running will also feature Boost Mobile Top Ten Shootouts, whilst the NTI Transporter Parade will be held on Wednesday June 17, with the popular Track to Town activation returning on Thursday June 18.
Support category action is headlined by the DUNLOP Super2 Series' first ever round in Darwin, with Porsche Carrera Cup, Trans Am, and the local Territory Sedans rounding out the bill.
The Triple Crown will again be awarded to the driver who accumulates the most points across the weekend, with Broc Feeney last year's winner off the back of a clean sweep of all three races.
The 2026 betr Darwin Triple Crown will be held from June 19-21. Tickets for the event are on sale now.
