AN EIGHT-round 2025 Porsche Paynter Dixon Carrera Cup Australia Championship will see Australia’s top one-make category return to iconic circuits new and old next year.

As well as maintaining a presence at Australia’s largest motorsport events, Carrera Cup will also compete at some of Australia’s best permanent circuits in a well-balanced 2025 schedule.

Carrera Cup will retain its position as the premier support category on the Repco Supercars Championship program in 2025 with every round hosted at major Supercars events and broadcast live on Fox Sports and Kayo, with selected key rounds also broadcast on the Seven Network.

The championship opens at Sydney Motorsport Park in late February at the Sydney 500, alongside the opening round of the Repco Supercars Championship.

The annual visit to the Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix will serve as round two, before the Top End hosts Round 3 of the championship in mid-June at Hidden Valley.

Round 4 will see the championship return to Queensland Raceway in Ipswich for the first time since the 2008 season.

The circuit was a staple on the Carrera Cup calendar between 2003-2008, with Jim Richards, Alex Davison, Fabian Coulthard and Craig Baird (twice) claiming round honours.

The circuit has provided exciting action in recent Porsche Michelin Sprint Challenge Australia rounds with the same expected when Carrera Cup returns.

Shell V-Power Motorsport Park at The Bend returns to host the fifth round; Carrera Cup continuing to support the opening round of the Supercars Endurance Season at The Bend 500.

The blockbuster run to the checkered flag then includes the regular stops at the Repco Bathurst 1000, Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500 and VAILO Adelaide Grand Finale to end the year on a high in South Australia.
