GOLD COAST 500 EVENT PREVIEW

T

he championship battle arrives on the concretelined streets of Surfers Paradise for the penultimate round of the 2023 Repco Supercars Championship, the Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500.

TRIPLE EIGHT RACE ENGINEERING

CHEVROLET CAMARO #88 BROC FEENEY #97 SHANE VAN GISBERGEN Triple Eight Race Engineering didn’t miss a beat as Jamie Whincup moved from the driver’s seat to team management in 2022, with Shane van Gisbergen rewriting the record books with the championship and Bathurst double and Broc Feeney winning a race in his full-time main-game debut season.

Chevrolet’s homologation team was hoping to lead the way amongst the Camaros, which feature in the familiar colours of Red Bull.

While van Gisbergen will be out to defend his championship and Bathurst title, winning with Richie Stanaway in the latter, Feeney stepped up into a regular contender. Martin Short and Andrew Edwards were back as the engineers for Feeney and van Gisbergen respectively, while Whincup now has a season of experience as team manager. While the new cars shuffled the field, Triple Eight Race Engineering remained one of the teams to beat as the closest challengers to the championshipleading Erebus Motorsport.

DICK JOHNSON RACING

FORD MUSTANG #11 ANTON DE PASQUALE #17 WILL DAVISON There were big changes for Dick Johnson Racing as well as the switch to the new Mustang with Brett Ralph and his family joining the ownership structure and David Noble appointed the team’s CEO at the end of 2022.

While Ford’s homologation team featured some new faces off track, there was continuity on the racing side with Anton De Pasquale and Will Davison behind the wheel, engineered yet again by Ludo Lacroix and Richard Harris respectively, and Shell continuing as the naming-rights sponsor of both entries. Both drivers have won multiple races for the team in recent seasons, often mixing it at the front of the field. However, they were held back by the parity issues around the Ford Mustang relative to the Chevrolet Camaro. De Pasquale gave the Mustang its only on-track win of the season in Townsville and a podium at Bathurst.

Ford’s four-car team underwent a late change to its driver line-up with reigning Dunlop Super2 Series champion Declan Fraser replacing Jake Kostecki in the Tradie-backed #56 entry. Aside from that, there was stability at the team with Cameron Waters leading the line alongside veteran James Courtney, sophomore Thomas Randle and new recruit Fraser. Monster Energy, Snowy River Caravans and Castrol continued as title sponsors for Waters, Courtney and Randle respectively, engineered once again by Sam Potter, Sam Scaffidi and Raymond Lau with Chris Stuckey working with Fraser. After two runners-up finishes in the championship and Bathurst over the last three seasons, Waters was primed for a championship challenge with the experience of Courtney and potential of Randle and Fraser a valuable asset for the team.

#2 NICK PERCAT #25 CHAZ MOSTERT

NICK PERCAT

It was a new dawn for Walkinshaw Andretti United this season. After a long association with Holden, dating back to its days as the factory-backed Holden Racing Team, Walkinshaw Andretti United switched to Ford in 2023. It was a return to the Blue Oval for Chaz Mostert, who spent the early years of his career with Ford, while teammate Nick Percat drove a Ford for the first time in Supercars.

After threatening to challenge for the championship in recent years and winning Bathurst in 2021, Walkinshaw Andretti United were hoping the manufacturer switch and full-field Gen3 reset didn’t hinder its progress to the front of the grid. But it was left hamstrung by parity issues around the Mustang with Mostert one of the leading Ford drivers this season.

#19 MATTHEW PAYNE #26 DAVID REYNOLDS

Grove Racing entered into a partnership with Kelly Racing in 2021, morphing into Grove Racing in 2022. After building up the team with the addition of David Cauchi as team principal, Grant McPherson as a technical director and Garth Tander as endurance co-drive, Grove Racing is looking to step up under Gen3. Penrite remained as the naming-rights sponsor of both entries with full-time rookie Matthew Payne replacing the retiring Lee Holdsworth alongside David Reynolds. Payne drove for the team in the Dunlop Super2 Series and made his maingame debut at Bathurst in 2022, scoring a sixth place. Reynolds is in his third season with the team, hoping to get back to winning ways after a number of podiums in that time. Alistair McVean continued his long association with Reynolds as engineer, while Jack Bell helps steer Payne through his rookie campaign.

Will Brown and Brodie Kostecki entered their third full seasons at Erebus Motorsport, with their new Chevrolet Camaros now in the colours of Coca-Cola with the soft-drink giant replacing Boost Mobile as the team’s naming-rights sponsor. Both drivers scored podiums last season, stepping up into championship contenders with a string of podiums and wins for both drivers in 2023. With Kostecki and the team leading their respective championships entering the final rounds, the team stands on the brink of a double success. There was stability off track with Tom Moore and George Commins back as the engineers for Brown and Kostecki, with the new cars and sponsor the only significant changes.

There was a new look for Team 18 with Mark Winterbottom switching from Irwin Tools to Dewalt Tools sponsorship, while Scott Pye features a rotating livery for their fourth season as teammates. After not scoring a podium since 2020, Team 18 were hoping the switch to the Chevrolet Camaro resulted in a more consistent jump up the grid following the recent end of its winless run dating back to its foundation in 2013. The engineering combination of Matthew Saunders and Richard Hollway partner with Winterbottom and Pye respectively, with team owner Charlie Schwerkolt desperate for podiums and more wins in Gen3.

Matt Stone Racing entered its sixth season in Supercars with Truck Assist back as the namingrights sponsor across both entries and Cameron Hill stepping up into the main game from the Dunlop Super2 Series. Hill, the first Supercars driver to hail from Canberra in close to 20 years, raced for Triple Eight Race Engineering in the second-tier series, making his main-game debut with PremiAir Racing at Bathurst in 2022. It was Le Brocq’s second season with the team, scoring its breakthrough first win in 2023. While Le Brocq continued with Jack Bellotti as his engineer, Hill works with Paul Forgie. Forgie was part of the Stone Brothers Racing during its championship run, reuniting with the Stone family as engineer on the #35 Camaro.

#23 TIM SLADE #31 JAMES GOLDING

PremiAir Racing entered its second season in Supercars with an all-new line-up from the one that started its debut season in 2022. After replacing Garry Jacobson midway through 2022 and impressing with solid results, James Golding was rewarded with the full-time drive in the Nulon-backed entry. He was joined by veteran Tim Slade, who moved from the Blanchard Racing Team to PremiAir Racing in place of Chris Pither. It was a solid debut season for PremiAir Racing, despite the midseason changes, with the Gen3 introduction a chance for the team to get on an even keel with its rivals. Experienced engineer Geoffrey Slater will work with Golding, while Slade is paired with Phillip Di Fazio. There were some more growing pains for PremiAir Racing in its sophomore season, though the pace of Golding and experience of Slade meant the team had a solid line-up to hit the ground running in Gen3.

FORD MUSTANG #3 TODD HAZELWOOD The only single car team in Supercars was the first to unveil and run its Gen3 car. The Blanchard Racing Team entered its third season as a standalone entry, after running out of Brad Jones Racing before 2021. And after two seasons with Tim Slade driving the team’s Ford Mustang, Todd Hazelwood took over the CoolDrive-backed entry.

After a single season back at Matt Stone Racing, Hazelwood switched to the Blanchard Racing Team. It’s a reunion of sorts with Hazelwood driving alongside team owner Tim Blanchard in the CoolDrive entry when it was run out of Brad Jones Racing in 2017, returning to Ford for the first time since 2018. The team was hoping the early build of its Gen3 Ford Mustang paid dividends to counter having just one car for development as the season progressed.
