Jamie Whincup confirmed for enduro seat with Broc Feeney

Triple Eigth Race Engineering boss Jamie Whincup will return as co-driver with Broc Feeney for the Supercars Championship endurace races this year.

“I’m stoked the team has decided that I am the best person to co-drive the #88 car alongside Broc for this year’s endurance races,” said Whincup.

“There’s no doubt that Broc is becoming a more confident and competitive driver in the series — you just have to look at his results after the first three rounds to prove that, and I couldn’t ask for a more compatible co-driver.”

The duo raced together in the 2022 Bathurst 1000 race for the first time, finishing fifth.

“It’s great to have Jamie back as my co-driver for a second season,” said Feeney.

“It still doesn’t feel real that I’m in this environment at Triple Eight with him, and to be able to co-drive together for another year is awesome.

“He was fantastic last year, and I learnt so much from him. I feel like we’re building a better relationship all the time, and I feel like we can have a really positive enduro campaign this year.”
