Stable Supercars TV commentary team

By Thomas Miles

Date posted: February 20, 2024

For the ninth straight season, Neil Crompton and Mark Skaife will call the Supercars racing in 2024, but possibly not every session in an unchanged TV line up.

Since the second year of Fox Sports being the major broadcaster in 2016, Compton and Skaife have been the voices of the on-track action and that will remain the case when the new season fires up at the Bathurst 500 this weekend.

But they may not call every single session in 2024 with Chad Neylon and Garth Tander “set to make main game commentary cameos throughout the season” according to the Supercars website.

Both Neylon and Tander have subbed in for Crompton on the rare occasions he has been absent at Townsville 2021 and Bathurst 2023.

But for the majority of 2024 Neylon and Tander will continue their pit lane duties alongside fan favourite Mark Larkham and Riana Crehan.

One of the few stalwarts of the entire Fox Sports era has been Jess Yeates and she will continue to be the host for a 10th season.

The likes of Craig Lowndes, Richard Craill and Matt Naulty will handle the support events, which include Dunlop Series, Touring Car Masters, Aussie Racing Cars and V8 SuperUtes.

Channel 7 remains the free to air broadcaster and the familiar face of Mark Beretta and expert Jack Perkins will remain the faces of that broadcast.

The Bathurst 500 is one of six free to air rounds in the 2024 season.

The other races that will be screened on 7 are Darwin, Townsville, Bathurst 1000, Gold Coast and Adelaide.

This is the penultimate year of the current TV deal between Fox Sports and 7.
