Team CoolDrive Beaurepaires Melbourne 400 Preview

12 Mar, 2020

Motorsport fans from far and wide will be tuning in this weekend to watch some of the best racing in the country as we head to the Beaurepaires Melbourne 400.

Team CoolDrive’s Macauley Jones will be looking for solid results as we head into the second round of the season. 

An event that everyone looks forward to with plenty of on-track action for all the family as the Supercars share the stage with formula one for their season opener. A long track where anything can happen with high speeds and high tyre degradation. Challenging, fast and thrilling. Albert Park will be the place to be! 

Stay tuned to the CoolDrive Auto Parts Facebook and Instagram pages across the event for the latest updates. Broadcast of the race will be LIVE on FOX Sports and Channel Ten across the weekend. Your local TV times and coverage information can be found here - https://www.supercars.com/tv-schedule/
