Hey all picked this up on a NZ news website!
A commitment from the Western Australian government has resurrected Perth's V8 Supercars round.
Controversially cut from the 2010 calendar, the Perth round has been locked in again with a new long-term deal set to be announced by the end of the month.
The about-face came after the WA government reportedly committed $5 million to begin a major redevelopment of the Perth circuit and its pit facilities with more funding expected in the coming years.
V8 Supercars CEO Martin Whitaker confirmed on Friday that the 2011 championship would visit every state in Australia.
The Perth round is expected to be held in early June next year.
"Perth is not only good for our fans but also for our major sponsors and we all want to keep WA on the calendar," Whitaker told BigPond Sport.
"As we've said all along we are on track to make an announcement by the end of July.
