Bathurst 1000 channel on FOX Sports

In the lead up to Bathurst 1000 on Sunday, FOX Sports launches dedicated pop-up channel.

FOX Sports launches another Bathurst 1000 Channel today -its biggest so far.

FOX Sports’ commentator Mark Skaife said, “This is the most demanding and unforgiving, yet rewarding, circuit on the calendar bar none and what a way to finish off the 2021 season. Crowned 2021 and defending Bathurst champion Shane van Gisbergen will take to the grid as the favourite for this race, or perhaps we will see a fitting farewell for Jamie Whincup, with some weather surprises and rain forecast I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else than parked up in front a screen over the weekend to watch all of the action on Foxtel and Kayo.”

Switching on today until Sunday, December 5, FOX Sports 503 will become the destination for viewers to receive the most comprehensive coverage of the 2021 Repco Bathurst 1000 with Bathurst specials and documentaries throughout the week, and practice and qualifying session leading into the Great Race Live on Sunday from 8.15am AEDT Live in HD and ad-break free during racing.
