Ford Performance Racing launches liveries for 2014 season

The four 2014 Ford Falcons of Ford Performance Racing with teams Ford Pepsi Max Crew, Bottle-O Racing Team and Team JELD-WEN Ford unveiled their liveries at the Sydney Motorsport Park today.

Ford Pepsi Max Crew fields two Ford Falcons this season for Mark Winterbottom and rising star Chaz Mostert.

“Overall, the whole team is in the best mindset for the year ahead and it is nice to get some young hungry guys in the other cars as that pushes everyone,” said Winterbottom.

“Obviously this is a dream this year to be driving for the Pepsi Max Crew in car six and I am really excited to get some good results for the team and for myself. I’m looking forward to creating some noise both on and off the track for the Pepsi Max Crew,” said Mostert.

Jack Perkins returns to full-time racing for the first time in four years with JELD-WEN Ford in the V8 Supercars this season.

“This time of year is really tough for all drivers, as we’re so close to getting back into the race car after a long period of down time, and it’s really very exciting. Normally, at this time of year I’d be up on the farm, working out in the paddocks, so it’s a very nice change of pace to be preparing for a full-time season of V8 Supercars,” said Perkins.

David Reynolds starts his third season for Bottle-O Racing and is confident to be a regular front runner this year.

“We had awesome pace in the second half of last season so I plan to continue that from the start of this year. Initially I felt the off-season came just as I was hitting my straps but on reflection the time off was good as I will need all my energy for the busy year ahead. Our success will also depend on how other teams have progressed in the off-season but I think our pace at the end of 2013 bodes well for how we start this year so I have no reason not to think we will be in contention,” said Reynolds.
