The 2017 Clipsal 500 Adelaide is a motor racing event for Supercars that is scheduled to be held on the weekend of 3 to 5 March 2017. The event is due to be run at the Adelaide Street Circuit in Adelaide, South Australia, and will mark the nineteenth running of the Adelaide 500. It will be the first event of fourteen in the 2017 Supercars Championship and will consist of two races of 250 kilometres.[1]

Nick Percat is the defending Clipsal 500 champion.[2] It will be the last time Clipsal will be title sponsor for the event, having been so since 2000.[3]

Report

Background

The event reverted to the two-race format last used in 2013, with organisers citing the format's popularity as the reason for its reintroduction.[4] The top ten shootout will also be re-introduced for qualifying for the Saturday race.[5]

Defending Series Champion Shane Van Gisbergen won the 2017 event.
