Supercars postponed in Newcastle

BY DAKOTA TAIT

The Newcastle 500 has been postponed, due to COVID-19 concerns around hosting a street circuit in the CBD.

Newcastle councillors and community groups last week voiced concerns around the management of the virus at the event.

The Sydney SuperNight is set to open the championship instead, but it's hoped the Newcastle race will happen later in the year.
