Official Indigenous Round

Racing Together Program

Racing Together is an initiative that helps Indigenous youth pursue a career in motorsports.

In 2024, the Brisbane-based team brought two vehicles, drivers Kade Davey, 15, and Karlai Warner, 17, and their crew to Darwin to race in the Combined Sedans category. Territory Indigenous mechanics were able to join the team to gain hands on experience in the motorsport industry.

Larrakia Nation

This event takes place on Larrakia Country.

Darwin Supercars has partnered with Larrakia Nation to showcase Larrakia culture and people. In previous years, the partnership included Larrakia people hosting a Smoking Ceremony, Welcome to Country on the grid and digeridoo trophies designed by Larrakia artists. The prized Triple Crown trophy, awarded to a driver who wins all three races, is a traditional shield designed by local Larrakia man Trent Lee.

Liveries

The Darwin Triple Crown sees Supercars wrapped in stunning liveries designed by Indigenous artists. Each design is unique and shares a story from the artist, the country where they come from or journey of Supercars drivers and their teams. In 2024 Darwin Supercars for the first time welcomed liveries from participating vehicles in the V8 SuperUtes and Porsche Carrera Cup categories.

Clontarf Foundation

In 2024, students from the Clontarf Foundation were exposed to the world of motorsports and event management through a partnership with Darwin Supercars. They had the opportunity to assist with the Teen Zone, Larrakia Nation activation among other activations on site. Students also heard from the Racing Together team and did a Pit Lane walk while on site.
