Race weekend formats for 2022.

Staying with the three equal-length races for the sprint rounds. Shootouts at Hidden Valley and Sandown as well as the big events. The fuel drops and Bathurst minimum stops remain in place :(.

The 2 day weekends are a great idea. More Supercars action for the majority of people who go Sat & Sun. Looking forward to taking my son to his first Supercar event, he was only 2 weeks when the last Pukekohe race was on.

I was meant to say I wish more events were like the Albert Park 4 x races.

I'd hope the AGP is locked in. We may have lucked out the event timing, looking like taking place between the end of the current wave of covid and the (presumed) next one come Winter.
