FOR THE FIRST TIME IN NEW ZEALAND
Finally, Race Of Champions (ROC) is coming for the first time ever to New Zealand. We are very excited to be heading to Wellington for the next ROC WORLD FINAL®.
Hnry Stadium will be turned into a spectacular race track when this unique event is hosted for the second time in the Southern Hemisphere.
ROC New Zealand will see some of the world's best drivers from the major motor sport series – including Formula 1, World Rally, Nascar, IndyCar, Le Mans, Touring Cars and Supercars – come together for a unique chance to compete head-to-head in identical cars to decide who really is the fastest of them all, the “Champion of Champions”, and to crown the “Fastest Nation” in the ROC Nations Cup.
Driver lineup subject to change; final driver confirmations will be announced in the lead-up to the event.
