There are two Supercars rounds left in 2026, and both are on TV in the next three weeks. The Penrite Oil Sandown 500 is this weekend, 6-8 November, with the races at 3:30pm on Saturday and Sunday; the bp Adelaide Grand Final follows on 26-29 November. Sandown is on Kayo and Foxtel only. The Adelaide Grand Final is on Kayo and Foxtel and also free on Seven and 7plus, except for the Friday race.
This page is the TV schedule for those two rounds and the start of 2027. For the season, results and the full 2027 calendar, see our Supercars hub.
Sandown 500 on TV: 6-8 November 2026
Sandown is the semi final of the Repco Supercars Finals Series, a 500 km event of 161 laps at Sandown Raceway in Melbourne. These times are from the Supercars event page, which lists them without a time zone; we have read them as Melbourne time (AEDT), which is the local time at the circuit.
| Session | Day | Time (Melbourne, AEDT) |
|---|---|---|
| Boost Mobile Top Ten Shootout (Race 33) | Saturday 7 November | 12:05pm |
| Race 33 | Saturday 7 November | 3:30pm |
| Boost Mobile Top Ten Shootout (Race 34) | Sunday 8 November | 12:05pm |
| Race 34 | Sunday 8 November | 3:30pm |
Practice starts on Friday 6 November, and Supercars' full schedule has the practice and qualifying times. The Sunday race starts at 3:30pm in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Hobart. The table below gives the same moment in the other states.

How to watch Sandown
Sandown is subscription only: Kayo and the Fox Sports channels on Foxtel show every session. Seven's free-to-air list for 2026, published by Supercars in October 2025, has five rounds (Sydney, Townsville, Bathurst, Gold Coast and Adelaide) and does not include Sandown. Supercars also publishes a TV and streaming guide for each round, which is the place to check channel numbers and the practice times.
Adelaide Grand Final on TV: 26-29 November 2026
The Grand Final is "four drivers, three races, one champion", on the Adelaide Parklands street circuit. The race times on the Supercars event page, listed without a time zone, are read here as Adelaide local time (ACDT):
| Race | Day | Time (Adelaide, ACDT) |
|---|---|---|
| Race 35 | Friday 27 November | 4:20pm |
| Race 36 | Saturday 28 November | 3:20pm |
| Race 37 | Sunday 29 November | 3:15pm |
The deciding race starts at 3:15pm in Adelaide on Sunday 29 November. The next table gives that moment in every state and territory.

How to watch the Adelaide Grand Final
Kayo and Foxtel show every session. Seven and 7plus are showing the Adelaide Grand Final free in 2026, according to Supercars' October 2025 announcement of its free-to-air rounds. Speedcafe reported that Seven does not show Friday races because of Foxtel's Friday exclusivity, so Race 35 is expected to be on Kayo and Foxtel only. We have not seen Seven's Adelaide schedule yet, so check Seven's guide before relying on the free coverage.
Which Supercars rounds are free to air
| 2026 round | Free-to-air channel |

For 2027, Supercars says Kayo will show every session and select events will air live and free on Seven and 7plus. The 2027 free-to-air rounds have not been announced.
Supercars time zones: how to work out the start time
Supercars times are quoted in local time at the circuit. In November, when most of the country is on daylight saving, use this table for the gap to Melbourne and Sydney (AEDT):
| City | Compared with Melbourne in November |
|---|---|
| Sydney, Canberra, Hobart | Same time |
| Brisbane | One hour behind |
| Adelaide | 30 minutes behind |
| Darwin | One hour 30 minutes behind |
| Perth | Three hours behind |
