2023 Supercars Tasmania SuperSprint – Start time, how to watch, channel & more

The circuit, located on the outskirts of Launceston in island's north, will host three sprint races.

This is the first two-day meeting of the season with support categories on track from Friday onwards, but Supercars only on Saturday and Sunday.

The compact schedule includes two half-hour practice sessions, a three-part qualifying and a race on Saturday.

The action then concludes with two qualifying sessions and two more races on Sunday.

Each of the three heats will feature a single mandatory stop to change at least two soft compound Dunlop tyres.

While Symmons Plains is traditionally a happy hunting ground for Triple Eight, the introduction of the Gen3 rules means the powerhouse squad may not have things its own way.

In fact it heads to Symmons Plains still behind Gen3 upstart Erebus Motorsport in the teams' standings, while Erebus driver Brodie Kostecki leads the way in the drivers' standings.
