“Now, we will work out – there are going to be schedule changes when it comes to the program.

“What I know is we’ve got four days of fantastic activity that will now be headlined by F1, F2, F3, and Supercars.

“And we’re working on the detail about what else is on the program.

“Now, that’s got a few more months to play out with Formula 1, but it’s a bumper program.

“To be able to be able to come along to Albert Park, have a four-day event with F1, F2, F3, and Supercars guaranteed, as well as other support action which we’re stepping through, it’s a great reason to register your interest and get in first at the head of the queue when tickets go on sale.”
