GOLD COAST, Australia — Shell V-Power Racing Team (Dick Johnson Racing) announced that reigning Repco Supercars champion Brodie Kostecki will join the team to drive a Shell V-Power Ford Mustang in 2025.
Kostecki brings enormous experience and an impressive level of success to the Team despite being just 26 years old. Kostecki will join two-time Bathurst 1000 winner Will Davison in the team.
“Brodie is one of the top drivers in the series and we’re excited to bring him on board the Shell V-Power Racing Team,” said team founder Dick Johnson AM. “He’s an impressive young man and I’ve certainly got a soft spot for anyone who has as much mechanical sympathy and understanding of the car as he does. With the combination of Will and Brodie, we look forward to chasing wins and returning to the top next season.”
“I am excited to join the Shell V-Power Racing Team, a team with such a rich history of success. This partnership represents a new chapter for me, and I look forward to working alongside Will and the entire team,” Kostecki said.
In making the announcement, Dr Ryan Story AM, Team Principal said “Our 2025 line-up is one of the best on the grid and a clear statement of intent from us and the commitment we have to our organization, partners and supporters for the future. Together, Will and Brodie will push each other further and make each other better.”
“We acknowledge and thank Anton De Pasquale for his contribution to the team and wish him well for the future. The hard decision was to let Anton go, the easy decision was to pair Will and Brodie together,” Story concluded.
Meanwhile, Erebus Motorsports has hired Cooper Murray to fill Kostecki’s seat in the No. 99 machine.
“It’s a very exciting time for me and the Erebus Motorsport team. We’re all looking forward to working together in the years to come. I’ve been working towards this moment since I started racing karts when I was 10, so I’m ready to make the most of it,” Murray said.
