The Red Bull Holden Racing Team has given fans a taster ahead of its spectacular unveiling at a secret location on Friday.

The brand new, next-generation Holden race car features a fresh, bold livery to show off the sleek hatchback body shape and advanced aerodynamic competition package.

Reigning Supercars champion and four-time Bathurst 1000 champion Jamie Whincup is excited to reveal the all new look and design to fans across the world of what he marks as the best looking Commodore yet.

“We’ve decided to really change it up with the colour scheme this year, which looks awesome on the new body shape,” Whincup said.

Graphics front and rear have been kept to a minimum, to showcase the elegant lines of the new Commodore shape while keeping it a bold and aggressive looking racecar.

While not giving too much away, the unveiling is set to wow media and fans alike when the covers come off in one of the most iconic Australian settings. 

The Red Bull Holden Commodore Supercars will make their competitive debut when the 2018 championship kicks off with the Adelaide 500, 1-4 March.

As for Whincup, he will be in Bathurst next month for the 12 Hour – a race he won last year.

He will partner expat Aussie Kenny Habul and former IndyCar racer Tristan Vautier in a Scott Taylor Motorsport-run Mercedes AMG GT3.

“We are ecstatic to have Jamie Whincup in the car, he won this year and he cemented the championship in Supercars, so you can’t get anyone more capable than him,” team owner Scott Taylor told Speedcafe.

“There is some pretty strong competition out there but the key to the 12 Hour is being there for the first 11 hours, and then you are in a position to challenge.”
