Kostecki to return to Erebus in New Zealand
Brodie Kostecki back with Erebus Motorsport after sitting out the opening two events of 2024.
Reigning Supercars champion Brodie Kostecki will return to Erebus Motorsport alongside Jack Le Brocq for the third round of the 2024 Repco Supercars Championship at Taupo in New Zealand.
After sitting out of the first two events of the season following what appeared to be a permanent split from the team, Kostecki will undertake a test day at Winton this week in preparation for his racing return in New Zealand.
“‘m excited to be back behind the wheel again. I needed some time away to prioritise my health,” stated Kostecki.
“I’m grateful for the support, privacy and time Betty, Barry, and the team have given me.”
Erebus CEO Barry Ryan added: “On behalf of Betty and the team, we are pleased Brodie is ready to drive again. Having Brodie back to work alongside Jack as he becomes more familiar with our cars will be a positive for our entire team.”
Todd Hazelwood, who is set to co-drive for Erebus at the Sandown 500 and Bathurst 1000, filled in for Kostecki at the season-opening Bathurst 500 and Australian Grand Prix events.
“A big thanks to Todd; he performed brilliantly under considerable pressure and scrutiny, so hats off to him,” said Ryan.
“We look forward to having him at the test day this week and back in the seat for the enduros later in the year.”
