Aaron Cameron will replace Aaron Love at Blanchard Racing Team for this weekend’s Australian Grand Prix round, the Ford squad has confirmed.
BRT dropped a bombshell just three days out from the commencement of track action at the MSS Security Melbourne SuperSprint, with Love and the team splitting.
In a team statement, 22-year-old Love and BRT had mutually agreed to part ways, effective immediately.
Love has since been replaced by Cameron, who finished runner-up in the 2024 Dunlop Super2 Series with Kelly Racing, winning in Bathurst and Adelaide.
Cameron’s Super2 efforts also earned him the Mike Kable Young Gun Award.
The Victorian didn’t return to Super2 in 2025, instead making a surprise switch to Formula Regional Middle East Championship in the summer.
After the short open-wheel season, Cameron returned to Australia and was trackside with BRT in CoolDrive colours at the opening round in Sydney.
The 25-year-old, who hails from Ferntree Gully in Victoria, will make his first solo Supercars start on home soil on the world stage this weekend’s Australian Grand Prix.
In a BRT statement, Cameron said the call-up was “unexpected,” but affirmed he was ready to race.
Cameron has already steered Blanchard Racing Team machinery in 2025, sampling one of the team’s Mustangs at the all-in Sydney test day last month.
“I can’t wait for my solo Supercars start this weekend, it was a bit unexpected to get the call-up but I am ready to get into it,” Cameron said.
“I know the team well from last year, I drove the car at the pre-season test and have worked with my Race Engineer Daniel Veronese in Super2 last year, so feel as prepared as I can in a situation like this.”
BRT boss Tim Blanchard added: “Aaron did a fantastic job for BRT last year and we are looking forward to continuing the relationship this year from the AGP onwards.”
