Repco Extends Partnership With Shell V-Power Racing

Repco has confirmed it will remain a premium partner of the Shell V-Power Racing Team, with the collaboration set to mark a tenth year in 2027. In plain terms, that means the familiar Repco logo will stay glued to one of the sport’s most recognisable liveries for at least another season.

The branding will continue to appear on the rear quarter panels of the team’s Ford Mustangs, which will be contested by an experienced campaigner and a rookie. The established driver will take the famed number 17, while the newcomer will race under number 38.

Ten Years And Counting

This is not a casual handshake deal. Repco described the renewal as a continuation of a decade-long relationship that complements its title involvement with the Repco Supercars Championship and the iconic Repco Bathurst 1000. The partnership is being positioned as part of an ongoing effort to enhance the fan experience both at the track and for viewers at home.

Branding And The Lineup

So where will you see Repco? On the rear quarters of the Mustangs, front and centre when the cars blast past at triple-digit speeds. The lineup pairs a proven race winner with a rookie stepping up to the big league, keeping a mix of continuity and fresh energy. Expect the team to capitalise on that narrative in promotions and fan engagement.

A Team With Serious Pedigree

The Shell V-Power Racing Team traces its roots back to 1980 and is the oldest operation still active in the series. Across five decades it has compiled an enviable record, including multiple championship crowns and several Bathurst victories. The connection between Repco and the team is not recent window dressing; it has historical threads reaching back to the early days when the team’s founder had a working relationship with Repco that helped kick-start his motorsport career.

What Fans Can Expect

Organisers say there are plans to reward supporters of both the team and brand, with fan-focused activities and promotions slated for the coming season. With the Repco Supercars Championship opening at Sydney Motorsport Park soon, the partnership renewal ensures the Repco name will be prominent as the engines fire up and the season gets under way.
