Matt Stone Racing Unveils Stunning New Liveries: A Racing Revolution!
The racing world is abuzz with excitement as Matt Stone Racing (MSR) pulls back the curtain on their latest creation. Today, at a bustling market in Eagleby, Queensland, the team unveiled their new driver line-up and the breathtaking liveries that will adorn their racing machines. But here's where it gets intriguing...
Le Brocq, a seasoned driver, is making a comeback to MSR, reuniting with the team after a stint at Erebus Motorsport. This move is made even more significant by the return of Sherrin Rentals as a full-time sponsor, recalling their support for Aaron Seton and Cameron Crick's wildcard entry in 2025. And this is not the only sponsorship story to tell...
Tyrepower, a former major sponsor of MSR, is back in the game, backing Le Brocq once again. This time, they're joining forces after Le Brocq's two seasons away at Erebus, marking a homecoming of sorts. The driver's history with the team includes a memorable win at Hidden Valley in 2023, his second career victory, which undoubtedly played a role in this reunion.
Le Brocq expressed his enthusiasm: "Partnering with Matt and the team again is a dream come true. Our success in Darwin in 2023 was unforgettable, and Matt's unwavering drive to push the team forward is inspiring. I can't wait to get back on track with Sherrin Rentals!"
Meanwhile, rookie sensation Zach Bates is stepping into the spotlight, replacing Nick Percat in car #10, backed by braking component manufacturer Bendix. Bates, the 2024 Super2 Series winner, has already made a name for himself with impressive wildcard performances in the Supercars Championship in 2025, including a 10th-place finish at the Bathurst 1000 alongside Craig Lowndes.
Bates shared his excitement: "The last few years have been a whirlwind. Winning the Super2 championship and then racing with a legend like Lowndes was incredible. Now, I'm ready to take on a new challenge with Matt Stone Racing. I have a lot to learn, but I'm in good hands!"
Team owner Matt Stone emphasized the significance of this season: "This year is pivotal for our team. We've made substantial investments in our personnel during the off-season to accelerate our growth and reach the top. The energy in our workshop is electric, and everyone is committed to winning. We're on the right path, and I can't wait for the action to begin in Sydney."
But wait, there's more to this racing saga! The Repco Supercars Championship season kicks off with the highly anticipated Dunlop Sydney 500 at Sydney Motorsport Park on February 20-22. Will Le Brocq and Bates live up to the hype? Will MSR's new liveries become iconic? Only time will tell, and the racing community is buzzing with anticipation.
