GT World Challenge Australia 2021
Two weekends from the start of the season, with 2 cars announced so far!!
Hopefully we can see a 10+ grid of GT3's supported by some GT4's, but I struggle to see anything substantial happening in 2021, I think 2022 will be the year for the SRO to really stamp their mark.
Despite only 2 entries being announced with the impending race so soon, they are both pretty solid entries. To get a combo of SVG/Whincup, and Mostert showing off these cars in SRO sprint format is great. Lets hope we see a few more touring car pro's, and some young blood in the mix too.
Previous GT3 entrant Fraser Ross has been out testing a GT4 Mclaren, 59 Racing who had run the GT3 Mclarens previously have sold the cars, with the promise of something new coming.
