Seven screens the Bathurst 1000 this weekend with three days of action live from Mount Panorama.
On the 60th anniversary of the Great Race, Seven’s coverage begins from 9:50am AEDT Friday as Mark Beretta suits up for his 25th event joined by Mel McLaughlin plus commentary from Jack Perkins and Will Brown. Emma Freedman will cover the atmosphere from the mountain while Mark Larkham reports live from pit lane along Chris Stubbs, Chad Neylon and Riana Crehan.
Mark Skaife and Neil Crompton will lead the commentary while Greg Murphy will also join Seven for insights.
Head of Network Sport, Lewis Martin, said: “It’s been a huge month of sport on Seven, and we’re just getting started.
“The Bathurst 1000 is undoubtedly the biggest day on the Australian motorsport calendar and we cannot wait to deliver all the best action from Mount Panorama across three full days of adrenaline-charged live and free racing, from this Friday.
“Once again, Seven has lined up an incredible broadcast team, led by Mark Beretta and Mel McLaughlin, alongside current driver Jack Perkins as he goes back and forth behind the wheel and the mic’ for Seven’s coverage,” he said.
“It’s going to be massive, and we cannot wait to bring you every thrilling moment, live and free.”
Seven’s Bathurst coverage on Friday will include Supercars practice and qualifying.
Saturday’s coverage from Mount Panorama starts at 9:50am AEDT on Channel 7, 7mate and 7plus, and will include Supercars practice and the Top 10 Shootout.
On Sunday, Seven’s broadcast kicks off with the Supercars warm up at 7.30am AEDT, before the event everyone has been waiting for – the Repco Bathurst 1000 – roars onto screens from 10.30am AEDT.
