THE 2025 PORSCHE Michelin Sprint Challenge Australia Series calendar has been confirmed, with an exciting six-round schedule locked in for one of Australia’s most competitive series.

The 2025 schedule will feature a mixture of Supercars Championship and SRO-promoted events, offering Sprint Challenge competitors a mix of high-profile events, strong Television coverage and excellent opportunities for track time at excellent drivers’ circuits across the six-round schedule.

Porsche Michelin Sprint Challenge will link with SRO Motorsport for four rounds of their new 2025 calendar, running on the same program as the Fanatec GT World Challenge Australia and Monochrome GT4 Australia series.

Starting at the Phillip Island Grand Prix circuit in April, the SRO segment of the calendar will include rounds at Sydney Motorsport Park, Queensland Raceway and Shell V-Power Motorsport Park at The Bend.

The series will also return to a pair of key Repco Supercars Championship rounds, including a second visit to North Queensland and the popular NTI Townsville 500 event in July.

Sprint Challenge made its street circuit debut at the event this year offering sensational racing, with the event serving for many as their first taste of street circuit competition.

The series will then be decided at the Penrite Sandown 500 in November, supporting the Supercars Championship at their key Finals event at the iconic suburban Melbourne venue.

Oscar Targett (Pro), Lachlan Harburg (Pro-Am) and Jacque Jarjo (Class B) claimed the 2024 titles in a compelling year of Michelin Sprint Challenge Australia competition.

John Murray – Porsche Cars Australia, Director Marketing and Motorsport

“The 2025 Porsche Michelin Sprint Challenge Australia calendar delivers a great mixture of events, circuits and opportunities for our teams and competitors.

“We’re looking forward to working closely with SRO Motorsports Australia to help grow their new for 2025 platform. They have exciting plans for their take on promoting events and it makes sense for an expanded Porsche presence, given the participation of our customers in their key categories as well.

“We are also proud to continue our excellent relationship with Supercars and ensure Sprint Challenge can join Carrera Cup in representing Porsche at key Repco Supercars Championship events.

“The first visit to Townsville was a roaring success, and concluding the series at Sandown as the Supercars are in the peak of their new ‘finals’ system will be an appropriate way to end the season.”

“SRO Motorsports Australia is pleased to further strengthen SRO’s global relationship with Porsche by welcoming Porsche Michelin Sprint Challenge to our events for the 2025 & 2026 seasons,” said McMellan.

“The Porsche Sprint Challenge class adds to Fanatec GT World Challenge Australia powered by AWS, Monochrome GT4, and the new Ferrari Challenge Series, making our SRO events truly GT-inspired.

“The 2025 season sees us enter a new era for GT racing in Australia and this class of Porsche competition is the perfect partner for our events.”
