Macauley Jones has shared a cheeky school photo of his father Brad on his Instagram account overnight, asking his Brad Jones Racing stablemates to join in on the fun.

Throwing some banter at Supercars.com about the content on its website, the Coca-Cola Racing driver suggested his post would be ideal.

What was your first car?

Sharing the throwback moment of his team owner dad, the 26-year-old wrote: “@nickpercat what you got?”

The post continued: “Not much car content coming from @supercarschampionship, so here is Brad as a kid.”

The black and white image of the BJR team boss shows a much younger Brad Jones, sitting at his school desk, looking neat and studious in his uniform.

Accepting Macaulay’s challenge, teammate Nick Percat shared a childhood photo of himself on his Instagram account, riding a horse on a showground carousel.

Admitting he stole the photo from his grandmother’s Facebook account, the now 32-year-old added a witty caption: “Dropped my Melbourne Cup ambitions to chase a career in motorsport.”

Macauley Jones began his third full-time season in the Repco Supercars Championship, following a top 10 finish at Sydney Motorsport Park last year, and finishing 19th overall.

Percat currently sits eighth in the standings following three top-ten finishes at Sandown last month.

Brad Jones Racing is seventh in the Dunlop Teams Championship only 27 points behind Shell V-Power Racing Team.

For the record, the photo of Jess Dane called out by BJR yesterday, was the most read article on the Supercars.com website in the past 24-hours.

The Repco Supercars Championship field will return to Symmons Plains for the Beaurepaires Tasmania SuperSprint across April 17-18. Tickets are on sale now.
