Triple Eight confirms Brown on three-year deal

Triple Eight Race Engineering has announced the signing of Will Brown on a three-year deal from 2024.

The confirmation comes as the team agrees to allow Shane van Gisbergen to pursue NASCAR opportunities from next year, paving the way for Brown to move from Erebus Motorsport to Triple Eight Race Engineering alongside Broc Feeney in 2024.

“As we’ve made clear from the very start, Triple Eight wholeheartedly supports SVG’s decision to showcase his world class talent abroad and we look forward to watching him continue to tear up the track like we witnessed in Chicago last month,” said team principal Jamie Whincup.

“Will has been on our radar for many years since he was driving an ex-Triple Eight car in the Super2 championship. He is exciting to watch on track, very personable and most importantly, a really good fit to our Triple Eight culture. The fact Broc [Feeney] and him grew up racing together and are friends away from the circuit is a bonus.

“Of course, we still have a fight on our hands to win the drivers’ and teams’ championships this season, and that remains Triple Eight’s immediate focus.”
