Eastern Creek. Two-part raceway upgrade

Work has begun on the first stage of a two-part redevelopment of Eastern Creek International Raceway. Future development works are scheduled to begin later in 2011. The raceway’s 3.93 km track hosts the V8 Supercars and A1 Grand Prix each year. “Eastern Creek is the only permanent race circuit in Sydney and the only FIA category two-level circuit in Australia. The financial support provided by the NSW state government has meant that we can increase our capacity to better serve the motorsport-hungry Sydney public,” said raceway CEO, Glenn Matthews.
