Phillip Island to continue to host top-line motorsport as Supercars announces return for 2027

Phillip Island to remain in use despite MotoGP and WorldSBK departures

Phillip Island circuit will retain its status as a premier racing venue despite MotoGP and World Superbike Championship departures. The iconic track will host the Australian Grand Prix for the final time next weekend before relocating to Adelaide for 2027. However, Supercars, Australia's premier touring car championship, will return to Phillip Island from 2027 to 2031 as part of a multi-year agreement.

This decision comes after the circuit faced concerns about its future following the announcement that MotoGP would move its Australian event to the new permanent track in Adelaide.
