The network\u2019s naming of the duo confirms it will have a direct on-the-ground presence, rather than solely relying on the Supercars Media-produced feed it takes for track sessions.<\/p>\n

Sydney-based White is no stranger to long-time Supercars fans, having previously held commentary and hosting roles with the category during stints at Ten and Seven.<\/p>\n

He returned to Seven this year primarily for news reading and rugby league duties, also hosting a Supercars season preview show that aired last Sunday.<\/p>\n

Seven\u2019s coverage will utilise Supercars\u2019 new commentary team shared with Fox Sports<\/a>, which this weekend will feature Chad Neylon and Garth Tander in the box.<\/p>\n

Taylor was also named in Supercars\u2019 full-season team as a pit reporter.<\/p>\n

As was the case last year, there is no free-to-air Sydney 500 coverage on Friday, with the season-opening race exclusive to Fox Sports\/Kayo.<\/p>\n

Seven\u2019s coverage kicks off at 2:30pm AEDT on Saturday, while the Sunday broadcast begins at 1:00pm AEDT.<\/p>\n

Seven has live broadcast rights to just five Supercars events this year, one less than previously, with Townsville, Bathurst, Gold Coast and Adelaide completing its schedule.<\/p>\n

The network\u2019s coverage has previously included Mark Beretta, who left Seven at the end of 2025, and Supercars co-driver Jack Perkins.<\/p>\n
