Mini Challenge - 1:30pm Saturday June 28th

This fourth round of the inaugural MINI CHALLENGE series comes from Melbourne's Sandown Raceway and features a comeback by former V8 Supercar driver Jason Bargwanna and a guest drive by Dancing with the Stars judge Paul Mercurio. These cars may be small, but they are truly race bred and with each round the competition is becoming more intense.
