The Repco Supercars Championship heads north to Queensland this weekend for the NTI Townsville 500, unfolding from Friday, July 11 to Sunday, July 13.

The Reid Park Street Circuit transforms into a concrete coliseum where drivers face 2.86km of unforgiving barriers, tight corners, and minimal overtaking zones. This year’s event packs a Friday sprint race alongside two 200km contests across Saturday and Sunday, demanding both outright speed and clever fuel and tyre strategies.

Broc Feeney arrives as the man to beat after a blistering run of seven wins from the past nine races, including five consecutive victories. He’s the firm +115 favorite with the top online sportsbooks, but the Townsville streets have been a challenge for him historically, with podiums but no main-game wins so far. Feeney’s goal is to extend his 183-point lead over teammate Will Brown to a decisive 315 points to lock in the Sprint Cup before the season’s final rounds.

Cam Waters looms as the biggest obstacle to Feeney’s dominance. The Tickford driver is a three-time Townsville winner and thrives on street circuits, famously defeating Chaz Mostert in an intense duel last year. At 320 points off the championship lead, Waters must treat this as a last stand if he wants to keep his title hopes alive. His aggressive racing style and qualifying prowess make him a serious threat in Reid Park’s concrete jungle.

Matt Payne is another intriguing contender. The Penrite Racing driver stunned the field last season by charging from 11th on the grid to victory in Townsville. Sitting 197 points behind Feeney, Payne’s combination of cool-headed driving and his team’s sharp strategic calls could make him a wildcard once again, particularly if chaos reigns during safety car periods or pit stops.

Brodie Kostecki, meanwhile, is searching for redemption in a season that’s fallen short of expectations. Townsville’s tight layout could suit his street-fighting style, giving him a shot at clawing back momentum if he can avoid trouble and capitalise on strategic gambles. With only 309 points separating the midfield, every lap will be a battle as drivers chase crucial championship points and Finals positions.
