Bryce Fullwood

Bryce Fullwood’s long-awaited shot at the main game this year is notable in more ways than one.

After five seasons in the Dunlop Super2 Series culminated in the 2019 title, Fullwood becomes the first Northern Territory product to race full-time in the Virgin Australia Supercars Championship.

In July, he’ll become the first homegrown talent to take part in the annual Darwin round.

All this comes at a Walkinshaw Andretti United squad which has not fielded a rookie in one of its prime two seats since Greg Murphy back in 1997.

It was long unknown whether the prodigious talent that first appeared on the Super2 scene at age 16 in 2015 would ever break through to the next level.

Fullwood did not place inside the championship’s top 10 in his first four Super2 seasons and had by no means an easy PIRTEK Enduro Cup initiation with Matt Stone Racing in 2018.

But it all came together last year, dominating the second-tier grid to the point where he wrapped up the title for MW Motorsport a round early, and shining as Andre Heimgartner’s co-driver at Kelly Racing.

Sporting the bright pink of his long-time backers Middy’s Data & Electrical, Fullwood steps into the #2 Holden as teammate to Chaz Mostert in an all-new WAU line-up.

Fullwood’s motorsport background beyond Super2 involves a decorated karting resume, highlighted by a Junior National Light Australian Karting title and representing Australia at the 2014 Rotax Worlds in Spain.
