2021 Repco Supercars Championship - Repco Mt. Panorama 500

Supercars Championship is never the same and it's no longer the motorsport Aussies are familiar with, well not really, because even with Repco now became the title sponsor of the 2021 season of the Supercars Championship, the Supercars Championship we are familiar with feels a bit empty on the inside now that Holden is gone for good following General Motors' decision to ax the Australian car brand.

Anyway, with familiar faces and machines in store for the "new normal" Supercars season, the iconic Bathurst track became their first battleground for this year's title fight for the two-race Repco Mt. Panorama 500 event. 

Originally, they would have start racing at the venue of the Australian Grand Prix but COVID-19 reshuffled their race calendar and made their opening battleground set to Bathurst.

Onto the two-part season opener; the incident-packed first race of the season saw Shane Van Gisbergen of Red Bull Ampol Racing claimed his first win of the season while Chaz Mostert finished 2nd and Will Davidson finished 3rd. In the second race, meanwhile, SVG completes the weekend sweep with the win while Cameron Waters, moving on from his Race 1 incident, finished 2nd and Mostert finished 3rd.

The next event of the 2021 Repco Supercars Championship will be the Penrite Oil Sandown SuperSprint on the 20th to 21st of March, 2021.
