The V8 Supercar Championship field will be reduced to just 28 cars.

The decision to officially slash the current number of racing entries was made unanimously on Wednesday at a category board meeting, and board member Larry Perkins said it was the right move for the sport.

“Absolutely, the preferred grid for us is 28.” said Perkins.

“The [financial] pie’s only so big, and cutting the pie into 28 slices is better than 32 where you all go away a bit hungry. Whereas 28 of a better-quality pie just makes more sense.”
