Aftermath

edit

Once again, questions were posed regarding the future of the Supercars event at Pukekohe. In January 2020, it was announced that the New Zealand leg of the championship would shift from Pukekohe to Hampton Downs Motorsport Park. The reasoning given for the shift was as a result of legislation which prevents the Pukekohe circuit hosting racing on Anzac Day. However, the COVID-19 pandemic ground global motorsport to a halt and the round scheduled for 2020 would not go ahead. The championship would not return to New Zealand until 2022 where the series would complete one more round at Pukekohe before the tracks closure and demolition in 2023.[citation needed]
