The 2017 Tyrepower Tasmania SuperSprint was a motor racing event for the Supercars Championship, held on the weekend of 7 to 9 April 2017.

Shane van Gisbergen entered the event as the championship leader ahead of Fabian Coulthard and James Courtney.

Polesitter Scott McLaughlin had a slow getaway from pole position and was rounded up by Chaz Mostert and Shane van Gisbergen off the start.

On lap two, Fabian Coulthard made contact with Rick Kelly on the exit of turn three, slowing up Garth Tander (who was behind Kelly), who in turn was hit by Cam Waters and subsequently spun, causing a chain reaction crash involving Tim Blanchard, James Courtney, Will Davison, Simona de Silvestro, Taz Douglas, James Moffat, Nick Percat, Scott Pye, Alex Rullo and Tim Slade.

[2] McLaughlin finished down in 14th having accidentally driven into the pit-lane as opposed to the grid in the red-flag period.
