The artwork was made in collaboration with Clontarf Foundation Wyong Academy students.
The program supports young Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander men with support from Ampol.
Broc Feeney comes to Darwin as the man to beat, having won the last five races at Hidden Valley.
“Indigenous Round is one of my favourite rounds each season,” said Feeney.
“I love the track here in Darwin, I’ve had awesome success here recently, I love racing for the Triple Crown, and I love seeing the cars in something different — something that means so much to these students and gets them involved so closely with the team.”
“Being able to roll out with something that looks this good and is so unique — it’s eye-catching, and it wouldn’t be possible without all of our long-standing partners getting behind it as well as they do.

“To have the freedom to fully wrap a car — both our cars — and have the Clontarf Academy kids design it is super special. It looks fantastic, looks good with the orange #88 on it as well.
“I can’t wait to go racing in it.”
Triple Eight teammate Will Brown is looking to snap a dry spell, having not won a Supercars race since Queensland Raceway in 2025.
Brown heaped praise on the students who designed the livery.
“How good does it look! I love the design. The Clontarf Academy kids have done an awesome job with it — it just popped as soon as the covers came off. It looks so good,” said Brown.
“These liveries change so much every year. It’s cool to see the design and know what inspired it, why it is what it is, and how they got it to look as good as it does on the Supercar.”
“It’s so different to our standard livery, and it’s cool that we have partners who support us doing things like this for the students, the community and Indigenous Round.
“It’s definitely a special round on the calendar. Excited to see it roll out of the garage on Friday and hit the track.”
The team’s workwear will also feature the Indigenous Round design across shirts and caps, which can be purchased.
About the artwork (as described by Triple Eight Race Engineering)
At the heart of the striking design is a visual representation of the Hidden Valley, Darwin racetrack, which draws similarities to the Darkinjung people’s whale totem — a sacred creature representing strength, guidance and resilience.
The whale totem serves as an anchor, connecting the land and water, and guiding people toward the Supercars Indigenous Round event.
Native animal tracks and human figures fan out across the design, surrounded by vibrant rivers representing the lifeblood of the land and the pathways linking communities across Australia.
