After the opening round on the streets of Adelaide in February it will be nearly five months before the second-tier Supercars category returns to the race track on July 18-19 at Winton for Round 2.

Four rounds still remain scheduled on the calendar this season with two events each to be held in Victoria and now in New South Wales.

The second round remains unchanged from the original revised schedule with country Victorian venue Winton Raceway set to host its first Super2 round since 2015.

Round 3 was set to be the debut appearance of the Super2 Series at The Bend Motorsport Park in South Australia, however the Tailem Bend circuit has lost its place on the Supercars calendar.

Replacing the South Australian circuit is Sandown, which moves forward from its original mid-December date to September 19-20.

Mount Panorama remains unchanged as the fourth round of the campaign, set to take place from October 8-11.

The final round of Super2 on the revised schedule was Sandown, but due to its reposition the concluding event will now be conducted at Sydney Motorsport Park as support to the Supercars season finale.

At this stage Supercars has not announced the event or race formats for any of the remaining four Super2 Series rounds.
