Trophy, cash prize up for grabs at Sydney quadruple-header
To celebrate Supercars' unprecedented quadruple-header at Sydney Motorsport Park, Beaurepaires is throwing a $25,000 cash prize behind the first-ever Sydney Cup.
The Beaurepaires Sydney Cup will be awarded to the driver who accumulates the most points over the four Repco Supercars Championship rounds being held at the Eastern Creek circuit across October and November.
The trophy and the $25,000 cheque will be presented to the winning driver at the last podium presentation of the Beaurepaires Sydney SuperNight on November 21.

Supercars CEO Sean Seamer said: “This will add another element of excitement for fans and drivers over four weeks of racing at Sydney Motorsport Park.
“Thank you again to Beaurepaires for their continued support of Supercars in 2021 and the first-ever Sydney Cup.”
Vice President Beaurepaires Scott Bennett said: “As the Official Tyre Retail partner of the Repco Supercars Championship and naming rights partner of the Beaurepaires Sydney SuperNight, we love all things motorsport and are so excited to see Supercars back at Sydney Motorsport Park in Eastern Creek.
“We are also equally excited to be supporting the first-ever Sydney Cup, and with $25,000 up for grabs, we’re sure it will make for an even more action-packed race event.”
Beaurepaires announced a partnership with Supercars in February as the Official Tyre Retail Partner of the Championship, along with naming rights for the Beaurepaires Tasmania SuperSprint and the Beaurepaires Sydney SuperNight.
Last month Supercars announced its return to racing which includes four rounds at Sydney Motorsport Park on consecutive weekends from 29 October to November 21, when the winner of the Beaurepaires Sydney Cup will be announced.
Three of the four events will include night races on October 30, November 13, and November 20.
Ticketing information will be released in the coming days for all events that make up the Beaurepaires Sydney Cup.
The four rounds at Sydney Motorsport Park will be followed by the final event of the 2021 Repco Supercars Championship, the six-day Repco Bathurst 1000 at Mount Panorama from 30 November to 5 December.
