Supercars chief Burgess to join Team 18 as team principal
Adrian Burgess will be joining the squad at Team 18 on 1 February 2024, reuniting with team owner Charlie Schwerkolt. Burgess, an English engineer, previously had a successful partnership with Schwerkolt at Dick Johnson Racing in 2010. He will be leaving his position at Supercars early next year after overseeing the implementation of Gen3 rules. Burgess has been based in Australia for almost 20 years and has had a successful career in motorsport, winning championships with various teams. Both Barry Ryan of Erebus Motorsport and Mark Dutton of Triple Eight Team are unhappy about Burgess’ quick switch, stating that there should be non-compete clauses in place.
