The Bathurst 1000 pits Australia’s best supercar drivers against each other on one of the country’s toughest tracks for a 1000km race.

The race is held at the Mount Panorama Circuit in Bathurst, New South Wales, and 2023 will be the 63rd year of the race.

Where can you watch the race?

If attending Bathurst 1000 isn’t an option for you, rest assured there are always ways to watch it from home.

The 161-lap race is traditionally broadcast live on free-to-air TV via Channel 7, so we expect that should be the case again this year.

The event will also be shown on Foxtel, meaning you’ll need a sports subscription package as part of your plan.

For those looking to stream the race, Foxtel will also stream it on Kayo Sports, which starts from $25 a month. Foxtel Now is another streaming option for those who can’t watch live.
