From 2017 Holden have confirmed they will enter two cars under the Red Bull Holden Racing Team banner.
“Holden is an iconic brand in Australian motorsport and today’s decision follows 26 years of unbroken participation in the Championship under the Holden Racing Team banner in association with Walkinshaw Racing,” Supercars CEO James Warburton said.
“This decision reinforces the underlying strength of Supercars and its position in Australian sport.
“We will continue to work with Walkinshaw Racing to ensure it remains an integral part of the Championship. It is one of the most popular teams in our sport and we look forward to them continuing to be part of Supercars for many years to come.”
The deal also sees Triple 8 awarded the exclusive rights to constructing all next-gen Commodore Supercars.
