New PremiAir squad launches 2022 liveries

PremiAir Racing has unveiled the liveries of its two cars ahead of the team’s maiden Supercars campaign.

The team, which was born out of Team Sydney, took the covers of the cars of Chris Pither and Garry Jacobson on Monday.

PremiAir Racing, owned by drag racing veteran Peter Xiberras, confirmed partnerships with Coca-Cola Europacific Partners and Subway Australia.

The team also confirmed it will be based on the Gold Coast, having secured a workshop in Arundel.

PremiAir Racing took the covers off its two Commodores at Cbus Super Stadium alongside Gold Coast Titans NRL players.

The Holden squad and NRL team share of the backing of Coca-Cola Europacific Partners.

The returning Pither will carry iconic Coca-Cola red and black colour scheme for the entire season on his #22.

Jacobson, who joined Team Sydney in 2021, will race the yellow and green #76 Subway Commodore in Sydney and Tasmania.

Director of Sales at Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Australia Jarrad Mortimer was excited to continue the company’s history in Supercars.

"Supercars has huge nationwide reach with an engaged fan base across Australia, appealing to a broad range of our customers and consumers," Mortimer said.

"We have a relationship with Supercars and Australian motorsport that goes back over 50 years, and we are very excited to play a part in this new chapter with Premiair Racing.

"The livery looks fantastic, and we are excited to get the season underway."

Subway Australia & New Zealand Communications Manager Rhys Reynolds was also keen to see yellow and green on the grid.

"With over 1200 restaurants across the country, Subway is fuelling more Australians with even more fresh options than ever before," Reynolds said.

"We’re excited to partner with PremiAir Racing to bring our fast, fresh, nutritious options to the track."

PremiAir Racing will tackle a test day at Queensland Raceway on Wednesday.

The team will make its racing debut at the Beaurepaires Sydney SuperNight next weekend.
