The 2011 Sucrogen Townsville 400 was a motor race for the Australian sedan-based V8 Supercars racing cars. It was the seventh event of the 2011 International V8 Supercars Championship. It was held on the weekend of July 8 to 10 at the Townsville Street Circuit in Townsville, Queensland. It was the third running of the Townsville 400.
The event hosted races 14 and 15 of the 2011 season. A 72 lap, 200-kilometre race was held on both Saturday and Sunday. Qualifying for Race 14 consisted of a 20-minute, all-in session with the fastest ten progressing to the top ten shootout. Qualifying for Race 15 was a single 20 minute, all-in session.
Mark Winterbottom used the number 95 for this event in a promotion for the Pixar movie Cars 2, in which he starred.https://speedcafe.com/winterbottom-changes-race-number-for-townsville/ Frosty changes race number for Townsville SpeedCafe 2011-06-29 2011-10-03 Winterbottom became the first driver to score four straight series poles since Mark Skaife in 1998 when he took pole for Race 14.https://speedcafe.com/winterbottom-takes-fourth-consecutive-pole/ Winterbottom takes fourth consecutive pole SpeedCafe 2011-07-09 2011-10-03 The Holden Racing Team's Garth Tander won Race 14 from Jamie Whincup and Winterbottom's team mate Will Davison. Winterbottom finished fifth behind Craig Lowndes. There was controversy over Tander's win when he escaped a drive-through penalty despite hitting the bollard and appearing to cross the blend line at pit entry.http://www.v8supercars.com.au/tander-makes-history-in-townsville/tabid/70/newsid/11440/default.aspx Tander Makes History in Townsville Official site of the Australian V8 Supercar Championship Series 2011-07-10 2011-10-03 April 2019 InternetArchiveBot yes Kelly Racing driver Greg Murphy was later penalized for a similar incident at the pit exit. Murphy's teammate David Reynolds led the race early on in an impressive drive but collided with James Courtney on his way into pit lane. The incident put Courtney out of the race and significantly damaged Reynolds car, leaving him 24th at race's end, ten laps off the lead.
Lowndes claimed pole position for Race 15 from Winterbottom and Reynolds. Lowndes led for most of the race before team mate Whincup, who had to queue behind Lowndes in his second pit stop, passed him in the closing stages.http://www.v8supercars.com.au/whincup-wins-final-race-in-townsville/tabid/70/newsid/11448/default.aspx Whincup Wins Final Race in Townsville Official site of the Australian V8 Supercar Championship Series 2011-07-10 2011-10-03 April 2019 InternetArchiveBot yes Winterbottom completed the podium. The two Stone Brothers Racing drivers, Alex Davison and Shane van Gisbergen, finished fourth and fifth respectively. Saturday winner Tander was in contention until a rear suspension failure dropped him several laps off the lead. Reynolds again had a disappointing race after a strong qualifying performance.
The weekend saw Whincup extend his championship lead over Lowndes from 156 to 186 points, the two Triple Eight drivers starting to pull away from third placed Van Gisbergen. Whincup scored 288 points to Lowndes' 258, while Winterbottom had the third highest total for the event with 240.
