ALL 25 Repco Supercars Championship driver/engineer combinations are now known, after Tickford Racing announced its 2023 team structure.
The Ford squad is maintaining continuity on Cars #5, #6 and #55, with its only changes being for the #56 Tradie Mustang.
Declan Fraser has replaced Jake Kostecki behind the wheel, and he’ll have veteran Chris Stuckey on the radio this year.
Stuckey, who last year was Todd Hazelwood’s engineer at Matt Stone Racing, succeeds Western Australian-based Rhys Lenegan.
Tickford has also confirmed Dilan Talabani will guide Brad Vaughan in Super2, while Daniel Veronese will work with Elly Morrow.
“We’ve had pretty minimal turnover and for the most part we’ve kept the family together, which heading into a really pivotal year is a really nice thing to have,” explained Tickford CEO Tim Edwards.
“For obvious reasons Gen3 is a huge change.
“Building four new cars is a massive project, but having those established relationships and dynamics in the workplace gives us confidence that the cars and the team will be well-prepared when we hit the track.
“It’s one less variable we need to navigate this time of year, and we’re optimistic that with that continuity we can position ourselves in the best way possible for the year ahead.”
Continuity is a common theme throughout the wider main game engineering ranks, with just five changes in total.
Jack Bell has stepped up with Matt Payne at Grove Racing, having worked together in Super2 last year.
Paul Forgie has taken over from Stuckey on MSR’s #35 entry, leaving a gap at Brad Jones Racing for Julian Stannard to fill.
BJR also has shifted Andrew Donnelly onto its #96 Camaro, replacing Tom Wettenhall.
