The polarising format will pit Broc Feeney, Chaz Mostert, Will Brown, and Kai Allen against each other for the Repco Supercars Championship.
Feeney will have a small edge over Mostert, having left the Sandown 500 atop the standings.
Feeney will begin the weekend with 5050 points while Mostert has 5030 to his credit. Brown begins on 5015 points while Allen begins on 5000 points.
Three races will decide the champion – the first, a 100km sprint on Friday afternoon. Saturday and Sunday will each feature a 250km contest.
Come Sunday afternoon, the driver who has amassed the most points will be crowned champion.
“I’m just really excited, to be honest,” said Feeney.
“Like, obviously, it’s been an awesome season. But this Finals series is something else. There’s been a lot happening in the first couple of rounds.
“To make it as the points leader into the last round is super important. I am genuinely just stoked and pumped to go racing.”
Feeney has been the most dominant driver this year, winning 13 races and taking a record-equaling 16 pole positions.
The Triple Eight Race Engineering driver is well aware of what’s at stake.
“It’s the biggest week of my racing career, probably the biggest week of my life coming up,” said the driver of the #88 Chevrolet Camaro.
“Everyone is racing extremely hard, but it’s the pointy end of the season, so you can expect hard racing.
“The racing has been different when there were 10 guys in the final, with seven guys in the final, and now only four guys in the final.
“You can probably expect the other guys to be racing pretty hard with nothing to lose now. So, it’s going to be exciting for us. I’m not focusing on anyone else apart from ourselves.
“And I know that when we do the best job we can, we’re capable of good things.
“And that’s the goal for us, to do the best job that we can. If we can do that, I’ve got no doubt we can go on and win some races.”

Who is the favourite to win the 2025 Supercars championship?
With the most race wins this season, it stands to reason that Broc Feeney is the favourite to win his first Supercars title. However, Chaz Mostert has enjoyed a purple patch lately, winning three of the four races across the Gold Coast and Sandown.
Bookmakers have Feeney at the shortest odds, though Mostert isn’t far behind. Kai Allen is at the longest odds, and remains winless this season. However, he has shown that consistency is the key to making it this far.
Will Brow, despite being last year’s champion, sits behind Feeney and Mostert in the pecking order. It’s been eight races since his last win at Queensland Raceway. Qualifying has been his weakest point.

When did Clipsal stop sponsoring the Adelaide 500?
The Adelaide Supercars event has gone through a variety of sponsors, but perhaps best known of all was Clipsal. The electrical accessories brand sponsored the Adelaide 500 from 2000 to 2017, with the event run under the Clipsal 500 moniker.
The 2018 edition of the Adelaide 500 did not have a naming rights partner, though that changed in 2019 when internet provider Superloop came on board for two years.
After the event’s one-year hiatus in 2021, lighting company VALO (which was later rebranded VAILO) took over as the naming rights sponsor. That was shortlived too as the company went broke.
To mark the inaugural Adelaide Grand Final, petroleum company BP took the naming rights sponsorship deal.
Adelaide Grand Final concert details
The Adelaide Grand Final will feature world-renowned rock band AC/DC on Sunday night after the champion is decided.
Australian punk rock band Amyl and the Sniffers will be the support act to AC/DC while Lenny Kravitz will play Saturday night with Jet in support.
Tickets start at just $99 for an adult general admission for the Sunday of the Adelaide Grand Final.
