“The all-new Commodore has won seven of the eight Supercars races this year and Ford’s re-entry is only going to push our teams even harder and make our race cars stronger as we look to take plenty more silverware from our rivals. We look forward to relegating the new Mustang to the back of the racetrack!”
The Supercars Championship is a proven winner and the close, hard-fought racing is the reason this category is considered one of the greatest by motorsport fans across the globe.
More manufacturer support only strengthens the quality of racing and we look forward to continuing our momentum as the ones to beat in the Supercars Championship.
