Cameron replaces Love at Blanchard

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 Love has since been replaced by Cameron, who finished runner-up in the 2024 Dunlop Super2 Series with Kelly Racing, winning in Bathurst and Adelaide.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 […]

Love and Blanchard Racing Team part ways

Aaron Love and Blanchard Racing Team have parted ways in a sudden driver-team split on the eve of the upcoming MSS Security Melbourne SuperSprint. Love will not contest the second round of the 2025 Repco Supercars Championship, with driver and team parting ways effective immediately. In a brief statement, BRT said the decision came at the request of Love himself, who made his debut with the Ford squad as it expanded to two cars in 2024. The Perth-born driver sits 23rd in the drivers’ standings after Sydney, where he finished 24th, 16th and 25th. The BRT statement reads: “At the request of Aaron Love, Blanchard Racing Team and Aaron Love have mutually agreed to part ways, effective immediately.” Aaron Cameron, who was an enduro driver for the team alongside Love last year, was later announced as the new driver of the #3 CoolDrive Ford Mustang. Cameron impressed last year, finishing second in the Dunlop Super2 Series with Kelly Racing with wins in Bathurst and Adelaide, while completing a triple-stint aboard Love’s car in the Great Race. Cameron didn’t return to Super2 in 2025, and was on the ground with BRT in Sydney in CoolDrive colours. Love’s future is now uncertain, with the […]

KRE signs exclusive GM Supercars engine deal

Supercars’ engine supply tug-of-war is at an end with KRE Race Engines signing an exclusive agreement with General Motors. The Ken McNamara-run KRE is the single engine supplier to Camaro teams. Motorsport Powertrains — which is owned and run by Dick Johnson Racing — supplies engines to Ford teams. Questions over KRE’s engine supply future were raised after current General Motors homologation squad Triple Eight Race Engineering announced its move to Ford from 2026. Triple Eight had declared KRE would take on the Ford engine supply from 2026 when it announced its own switch to the Blue Oval back in January. That was met with heavy resistance from GM, Supercars and various teams in the paddock. McNamara has now shut down the saga by signing an exclusive GM contract, which covers the 2025 and ’26 seasons. The news has been trumpeted by GM in a brief statement from local Chevrolet Racing boss Chris Payne. “We believe that the powertrain is a critical part of the DNA in the sport of Supercars, and that the fans want to see that aspect of the competition continue with strong brand differentiation,” said Payne. “We look forward to working with and extending our relationship […]

Toyota in second Supercars team talks

Toyota believes it is closing in on its second Supercars team despite the complicating factor of the GM homologation team saga. The Japanese carmaker has been working to a clear plan for its entry to Supercars next season which involves there being four new Supras on the grid. Two will come from homologation outfit Walkinshaw Andretti United with a second yet-to-be-appointed team to run the other two. Following the Toyota announcement there was a flurry of interest in the second Toyota ‘slot’ with Team 18 quickly emerging as the favourite to land a Supra deal. That has since been deeply complicated by Triple Eight’s impending defection to Ford, which has given GM the carrot of homologation duties to shop around to its current line-up. That too has seemingly piqued Team 18’s interest with the squad being touted as a frontrunner along with PremiAir Racing. It could be that whichever doesn’t end up as the GM HT will switch to Toyota. Not that Toyota’s marketing boss Sean Hanley, who has driven the Supercars program, is worried about what GM may have to offer its teams. “We can only control what we control,” he told Speedcafe. “We had no knowledge of anything that was happening […]
