Supercars commits to ‘live’ pitlane concept
The Supercars Commission has approved a unique moving pit order, allowing teams to change their pit order for each event instead of being locked in for the entire season. Previously, teams were garaged in the order they finished in the teams’ championship the previous year, with the reigning teams’ champion at the pit exit. In April, the series proposed abandoning this concept, leading to a formal investigation and ultimately the approval of a live order by the Supercars Commission. The new pit order will be based on the current teams’ championship standings and will be implemented for the 2024 season opener. The change is facilitated by the new 24-car field for 2024, which includes only one four-car team and no single-car teams. However, the four cars from Brad Jones Racing will still be split into two for the teams’ standings but can be grouped together in garage order based on the best-placed duo. In other news, Stanaway topped the final co-driver practice for the Bathurst 1000 race.
