Sydneysider Joey Mawson, who claimed two podiums in the GP3 Series last year, will race in Porsche Payce Carrera Cup Australia this weekend at the Formula 1 Rolex Australian Grand Prix.
Mawson will be fielded by Porsche Centre Melbourne, which also runs the entries driven by Round 1 winner Nick McBride and gentleman driver Marc Cini.
A 2018 Carrera Cup race winner returns to a Cup Car this weekend, namely new Super2 Series driver Dylan O’Keeffe, who is making a one-off start in the Porsche Centre Brighton entry which Glen Wood drove last year.
There are also two new faces in the TAG Heuer Pro-Am ranks, namely Rio Nugara and David Ryan.
Nugara will take over from Josh Hunt in the Volante Rosso car while David Ryan, a former Porsche Michelin GT3 Cup Challenge competitor, makes his first start in a single-driver Carrera Cup round after twice racing in Pro-Am events with Fraser Ross.
Round 2 will feature four races at Albert Park, one on each day of the event, after a single practice session and qualifying this Thursday.
