Porsche Cars Australia has released its eight round Porsche Carrera Cup Calendar for 2023.

Australia’s premier one-make championship will again be the primary support for the Supercars Championship, with a stellar selection of rounds for its 2023 tilt.

Following 2022’s introduction of the Type 992 generation Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car, record fields took part as the championship battle between eventual winner Harri Jones and Aaron Love went down to the wire at the Gold Coast 500.

The country’s premier Porsche category will continue to hold its Championship status from Motorsport Australia, as it continues to be a proven and well travelled pathway in both the Pro and Pro-Am classes for Australasian drivers to take big strides both locally and internationally.

The season will take-off in style in 2023, with the opening round coming in Australia’s biggest Motorsport show, the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix on March 30 – April 2, with seven marquee rounds to follow.

After the Darwin Triple Crown at Hidden Valley Raceway, the series will head to the streets of Townsville, before returning to The Bend.

Following SA, the show then heads to Victoria’s Sandown on September 15-17 as support for the welcome return of the epic Supercars Sandown 500 prior to Bathurst.

After tearing around the Skyline of The Mountain in support of The Great Race, the series then makes a return to the hectic streets of the Gold Coast for its penultimate round, before closing its season at the fan favourite Adelaide 500.

Once again, every round of the Carrera Cup will be live on Kayo and Foxtel, with five rounds also featuring on national television across the Seven Network, namely Darwin, Townsville, Bathurst, Gold Coast and Adelaide.

Barry Hay Motorsport Manager of Porsche Cars Australia, was excited to introduce the schedule for Australia’s classiest race series.

“We are delighted to announce our 2023 calendar which will see our drivers continue to race at the biggest motorsport events of the year in front of the biggest crowds enjoying the best support and television package available,” Hay commented.

“Every season we strive to deliver a premium class experience for all our customers, teams and partners, and I have no doubt that the 2023 season will arguably be one of the best in its long and illustrious history.”
