The first entrants for the BP Supercars All Stars ESeries celebrity race have been announced, which includes former racers and sports stars.
Supercars confirmed that it will stage a celebrity race on iRacing around Bathurst on May 12, the night preceding the official series.

Other participants announced include Australian cricketers Brad Hodge and Peter Siddle, surfer Luke Egan, former NRL player Nathan Hindmarsh, and AFL player Jack Riewoldt.
All Blacks have reportedly registered interest in competing, although their participation is yet to be confirmed.
