Winterbottom announces Team 18 exit

Mark Winterbottom has announced he will leave Team 18 at the end of the current Supercars season.

With speculation linking Anton De Pasquale to a move to Team 18, vacating a spot at Dick Johnson Racing that Brodie Kostecki is likely to fill, Winterbottom took to social confirm to announce his exit.

“To my supporters, the last 24 hourrs has been a whirlwind, as I was told that Team 18 signed a different driver for 2025.

“I don’t really know what the future holds, I’m still digesting the news, but I know I can hold my head high as a professional sportsman. I have given 110 percent and loved working with the team crew and all the sponsors, you are great people.

“I truly value the support from my family, friends, sponsors and supporters, at a time when I need it most.”
