Nissan, AMG Mercedes-Benz and Volvo have come and gone in the Virgin Australia Supercars Championship between 2013 and 2019, leaving Ford and Holden to continue the duopoly they had for the preceding two decades in 2020.
Kelly Racing switches from Nissan Altimas to Ford Mustangs this season, resulting in a return to the two-horse race of Ford versus Holden in the second consecutive season of the Mustang against the Commodore.
With the Australian Touring Car Championship/ Virgin Australia Supercars Championship celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2020, the milestone season will be contested between the two manufacturers that have been at the cornerstone of the category over the last six decades.
Ford claimed a clean sweep of the 2019 championships courtesy of DJR Team Penske and Scott McLaughlin. DJR Team Penske features an unchanged line-up of McLaughlin and Fabian Coulthard, while Tickford Racing continues to run four Mustangs in 2020.

1960 – 2020 TOP 60 DRIVERS
Who are the greatest drivers in the 60-year history of the Australian Touring Car Championship/Supercars? We rank the top 60 with an emphasis on best championship finishes, race-winning percentage and competitive longevity. Only drivers with top 10 championship finishes were considered, to emphasise championship performances over part-time or endurance campaigns. Also, results from the Bathurst 1000 and other endurance events were only factored in when they were part of the championship.
