Sandown 500 entry list revealed.

The entry list for the first of the season's major Australian V8 Supercar endurance races has been released, containing a number of mouth-watering combinations trying their hand together before Bathurst.

While established team-mates pair off at HRT (Mark Skaife/Todd Kelly), SBR (Marcos Ambrose/Russell Ingall), Kmart Racing (Greg Murphy/Rick Kelly), Orrcon Racing (Jason Bargwanna/Mark Larkham), FPR (Craig Lowndes/Glenn Seton) and OzEmail Racing (Brad Jones/John Bowe), other combinations involving outsiders also catch the eye.

Australian motorsport favourite David Brabham returns home to partner Brazilian Max Wilson at Briggs Motorsport, running alongside the equally promising pairing of Craig Radisich and Rickard Rydell. The Swede's former BTCC rival, John Cleland, gets a place alongside Andrew Jones in the second OzEmail entry. Perennial Bathurst competitor Tomas Mezera returns at Castrol Perkins Racing, while Andy Priaulx, a frontrunner alongside Rydell in Europe this year, teams up with Cameron McLean in the second Kmart car.
