Online racing ace secures plumb Eseries drive

The Shell V-Power Racing Team has become the latest squad to announce its line-up for the upcoming Cash Converters Supercars Eseries.

The team’s main game drivers Anton De Pasquale and Will Davison will both feature in the All Star category.

Professional gamer Brady Meyers has been recruited to contest the Pro Series in the team’s second entry.

Meyers boasts 15 years of experience in iRacing, and stepped up to competition four years ago.

The 26-year-old has competed in the Supercars Pro Series for the past two years, having won the inaugural draft in 2019.

“I’m ecstatic to be representing the Shell V-Power Racing Team this season,” said Meyers, who is the two-time defending iRacing official Bathurst 1000 champion.

"I’m really keen to be back in the Eseries and to be representing such a prestigious team... it’s such a big honour.

"I’m really looking forward to getting stuck in and hopefully bringing home some big results.

"Ultimately, I’m looking for podiums and race wins, but I’d love to be in the top five this season.”

The six-week long competition will begin on Wednesday.
