Rich in motor racing heritage, Sandown Raceway will host the season opener in 2021. The Melbourne circuit provides thrilling racing and the convenience of a metro circuit.

The Bend Motorsport Park is Australia’s only circuit to comply with the latest FIA Grade 2 and FIM Category A standards. A favourite among Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car drivers, the circuit combines technical corners, fast flowing sections and an aggregate rise and fall of 85 metres.

Australia’s premier one-make Championship returned to Townsville after a four year hiatus in 2019, Cooper Murray’s dominating victories across the weekend made him the youngest victor in Porsche PAYCE Carrera Cup history.

Sydney Motorsport Park has featured on the Carrera Cup calendar since 2003, where the circuit featured twice in the inaugural season with a round in May and November. The western Sydney circuit also hosted the first ever two-driver Pro-Am event, held at the inaugural Porsche Rennsport Australia event in 2013. In 2016, it was home to Australia's first ever joint round with Carrera Cup Asia, an initiative replicated for the 2018 event.

Rich in Australia motor racing heritage, the Mount Panorama Circuit has hosted a Carrera Cup round in each of its seasons since 2003. The iconic 6.2km circuit features a steep climb up Mount Panorama – a vertical ascent of 174 metres – before the near 2km run down Conrod Straight, along which Carrera Cup racers will experience their fastest speeds of the season.

The streets of Surfers Paradise have hosted Carrera Cup every year the category has been in operation, during which time two versions of the circuit have been in use – the longer 4.4km Indy layout (2003-2008) and, more recently, the condensed 2.9km Supercars (2011-present) circuit. The track is the site of the closest finish in Carrera Cup racing – though it didn’t feel like it at the time. David Russell crossed the line 5.0456s in front of Steven Richards to win the first race in 2014, however a five-second penalty for a start infringement meant the official margin was only 0.0456s in the final results.
