Supercars delivered another thrilling chapter of motorsport action as Sandown reprised its vital role on the calendar as the second leg of the Finals Series, featuring two intensely contested 79-lap races.
The event drew a massive crowd, with official figures confirming a three-day spectator attendance of 70,677 people. This impressive turnout represents a solid 3.17 percent increase, highlighting the enduring appeal of the historic venue among local motorsport enthusiasts.
Supercars interim CEO Barclay Nettlefold heaped praise on the remarkable turnout and the electric atmosphere generated throughout the entire weekend at the iconic circuit.
"The Penrite Oil Sandown 500 is one of the most historic and important events on the Supercars calendar, and it was fantastic to see more than 70,000 passionate fans pack the grandstands and hillsides across the weekend," Nettlefold stated.
"The atmosphere across all three days was outstanding, culminating in a brilliant Sunday crowd enjoying perfect conditions and some dramatic racing as the Supercars Finals Series continued to deliver," he added.
Nettlefold also took the opportunity to express his gratitude to everyone who contributed to the success of the event, acknowledging the dedication of fans, officials, volunteers, title partner Penrite, as well as all competing teams and drivers.
"On behalf of Supercars, I’d like to thank our fans, officials, volunteers, our naming rights partner Penrite, and all of our teams and drivers for putting on a fantastic show both on and off the track," Nettlefold concluded.
"The passion and support shown by Victorian motorsport fans continues to make Sandown one of the great events in Australian motorsport, and we’re incredibly grateful for their support."
Looking ahead to the future of the championship, Sandown is set to take on a fresh strategic role next year. The venue will transition away from the Finals Series to serve as the final round of the Sprint Cup, with the upcoming event officially scheduled for August 27-29.
