“Knowing how successful the team has always been I know I’ll have all the tools to be competitive, I’d really like to get into the top 10 in those first few rounds and then try and progress from there.

I haven’t done a full season yet so I know there’s a big challenge ahead, but I’m really keen to learn as much as I can from the team and my teammates. “To this point I’m still pretty fresh in the series.

“It’s a team that has a lot of heritage and has had a lot of success in the past, so I’m really thankful for the opportunity Tim (Edwards) and the team have given me, and I’m really looking forward to getting together with them and getting to work,” Kostecki said.

The 21-year-old joins the recently announced James Courtney and reigning Dunlop Super2 Series winner Thomas Randle among the team’s confirmed roster, with the off-contract Cam Waters also expected to continue with Tickford next year. TICKFORD Racing has recruited Jake Kostecki for the 2022 Repco Supercars Championship, replacing Jack Le Brocq in its four-driver lineup. There will be more, higher-quality racing and this will see V8 Supercars continue as the most cost-effective, competitive and exciting touring car category in the world,' says Skaife.Jake Kostecki will drive for Tickford Racing in the 2022 Repco Supercars Championship. The live rear axle has been replaced by a modern independent rear suspension set-up while weight has been reduced by 100kg. The engine has been moved back towards the centre of the car to reduce damage in a head-on crash. They have the same architecture but have enough room to have different manufacturers' engines and skins to be market relevant. The main change is in the construction of the cars. Effectively teams will be able to build four V8 Supercars for the price of three and, while the car is being introduced for the 2013 season, it won't be until 2015 that everything will be achieved. The Skaife programme means V8 Supercars will become an 18-event, 40-week season. It is only a matter of time, says Skaife, before other manufacturers see the value for money in the sport and want to come and play. 'We also want to ensure the market relevance by keeping the car as close as it can possibly be to the car on the showroom floor.'

The major changes are under the skin or in the design architecture, primarily to make the cars cheaper to build and to repair. 'We already have an outstanding product so this is a case of evolution, not revolution. 'The Car of the Future is an integral part of our long-term business and sporting strategy that will result in V8 Supercars embracing new opportunities domestically and internationally, on and off the track. 'Scaife's team has not only delivered the project in time but also with a tremendous finished product,' says V8 Supercar chairman Tony Cochrane. To do this, teams must keep costs down and repair cars faster. The V8 Supercars organisers are looking to revitalise the series with a condensed calendar. The architecture and floor plan have been designed to be developed over the next 10 years and reduce the costs of going racing.
