Sebring is brutal. The 5.95 km circuit is rough, fast, and unforgiving. Bumps everywhere. Sunset Bend is a test of nerve. Tire wear will be a factor over 225 km. Survive the early laps, and strategy becomes key.

Big changes this year. New Gen 3 Supercars debut. New teams. New drivers. The defending champ? New team for him too. Everyone’s adjusting. Nobody knows who has the edge yet.

Last year, a huge crash shook up the race. It set the tone for an unpredictable season. With new cars in the mix, expect more of the same. Veterans will try to control the chaos. Rookies will try to exploit it.

The first round always matters. A strong start can shape a season. But at Sebring, nothing is guaranteed.
