The Bathurst 500 (known for sponsorship reasons as the Thrifty Bathurst 500) is a Supercars Championship motor racing event that has been on occasion, with the most recent iteration scheduled for the 2024 season at Mount Panorama Circuit in Bathurst, New South Wales, Australia.
In recent years, the Bathurst sprint round has been used as a reserve round that can be implemented when necessary to replace cancelled rounds. This happened in 2021, when international travel restrictions forced Motorsport Australia to cancel the Bathurst 12 Hour, and in 2024, when Supercars' talks with Newcastle to renew their contract to run the Newcastle 500 collapsed.[1] A championship sprint event at the circuit was previously held six times between 1966 and 1996.[2]
