Messages of support have emerged in the wake of confirmation 23Red Racing and Will Davison will not be on the Supercars grid when it resumes in June.

Thank you @will_davison and @23_racing for what you have achieved in @supercars. One of the best-liveried cars in the field, whether a Falcon or a @FordPerformance #Mustang, your fighting spirit was clear for all fans to see. You’ll be missed. #VASC @TickfordRacing https://t.co/FADNpan0Mz

I have few words. But I will say this. There is no better person on this planet. What highlights this is the amount of phone calls from ur competitors & teams today to ensure you are ok. That is what I am most proud of. The results they speak for themselves🖤 pic.twitter.com/HudW3JZCne

As excited as I am to get back racing I still can’t comprehend that one of the nicest, hardest racing blokes in pit lane might not be there to resume our door to door combat 🤬 A guy with unbelievable talent and years left of racing at the front of the field.#VASC pic.twitter.com/mfp11hHteR

He’s taking the pi%s out of me for attempting to apply an imaginary brake in the passenger seat during a hot lap of Newie. It was the same weekend @23redracing was launched. It’s only words I know @willdavison__ but keep powering mate. Something good has to be on the other side of all this crazy Covid stuff. Hope @philmunday is back in the sport in time too. Ripper bloke who has quietly done a lot in the #automotive industry & #motorsport over the years. #vasc #motorracing

I love this sport more than just about everything else if my life after my family, but as an industry and a business, I hate it sometimes. Out of all the drivers on the grid, I can’t believe my brother @willdavison__ will not be on the grid when things restart at SMP next month. Knowing that he was back in a competitive car/team and in the 2nd year of his relationship with his engineer Brendan, everything indicated that it was going to be a great year for him and @23redracing and he was once again be able to show that he is one of the most talented drivers and best racers on the grid. I am sure he will be back as he is too good not to be.
