Penske Australia & New Zealand’s partnership with the Shell V-Power Racing Team has been extended, with the continued focus of the collaboration to be the use of MAN trucks in supporting the team’s logistical and operational demands.
CEO of the Shell V-Power Racing Team David Noble says he is looking forward to the continuing success of the partnership.
“Penske Australia & New Zealand, alongside MAN, have a long and successful history with our team,” Noble says.
“Our partnership has been united in building sustained success with a focus on continuous improvement.
“The synergy between us is strong, and continuing the journey with Penske demonstrates the passion we both share with motorsport.
“This is a wonderful relationship that we share, and to extend this agreement into 2025 and beyond is extremely exciting for us. We look forward to sharing future success with Penske.”
As part of the partnership a brand-new MAN partnership was delivered to the team mid-last year.
Managing Director of Penske Australia & New Zealand Hamish Christie-Johnson hailed the key milestone of the delivery.
“The all-new MAN TGX prime mover delivered to the Shell V-Power Racing Team features the powerhouse 640hp engine, boasts excellent driver fit, great efficiency and economy, and optimises uptime,” Christie-Johnson says.
At the time of writing, the Shell V-Power Racing Team, with drivers Brodie Kostecki and Will Davison, currently sits fifth in the 2025 Supercars Championship.
With the Shell V-Power Racing Team committed to remaining carbon neutral, it is hoped the added efficiency capabilities of the new MAN prime mover can continue to contribute to the team’s initiatives.
