Supercars' silly season has started a little later this year, teams were very concerned about finishing 2020 first.
12 months in the making, Team Penske have exited Supercars, leaving Dick Johnson Racing to be controlled by Ryan Story. McLaughlin has gone with them to Indy car full-time, Ludo may follow.
Auto Action report De Pasquale and Will Davison will team up at the renewed DJR.
Blanchard is rumoured to be taking his REC away from BJR, heading for a Tickford Mustang. How this fits into the current Tickford quartet is now yet clear. The Phil Munday REC is rumoured to have been purchased by BJR, keeping BJR at 4 cars. Macauley Jones may be pushed out of BJR as a result of this.
With plenty of uncertainty regarding sponsors around, surprises are still likely.
Confirmed and likely driver line up: 2. Fullwood 3. 4. Smith (expected to stay) 5. Holdsworth 6. Waters 7. Heimgartner 8. Percat 9. Reynolds (some rumours questioning this) 12. W. Davison 14. Hazelwood 15. Kelly 17. De Pasquale 18. Winterbottom 19. 20. Pye 22. 25. Mostert 34. 35. 44. Courtney 55. Le Brocq 88. Whincup 97. van Gisbergen 99. Will Brown
