MW Motorsport confirms three-car Super2 effort

MW Motorsport has confirmed it will field three Nissan Altima Super2 entries in 2022.

Tyler Everingham, who won two races last season, has been locked in for a third MWM season.

The Dubbo product will be joined by newcomers Thomas Maxwell and Angelo Mouzouris.

Mouzouris’ arrival from Triple Eight was confirmed earlier on Thursday.

The 20-year-old won the 2019 Australian Formula Ford Championship.

Maxwell, meanwhile, joins MWM following a stint in Europe headlined by British Formula 3 and Renault Eurocup success.

The 2022 season will be Maxwell’s first in a Supercar.

It also confirms Jayden Ojeda’s exit from MWM; he finished third overall in 2021.

"We were pretty strong last year, so I’m confident keeping that connection with the team," former Mike Kable Young Gun Award winner Everingham said.

"I feel like we have a head start, having been with the same team and same car as the past couple of years, so I really know what I’m in for.

"We were strong last year and got some race wins.

"There was some bad luck too, so we’re just really keen to keep progressing and hopefully, with the experience that we have, we can have the jump on everyone else.”

Maxwell will make his Super2 debut

Team owner White added: "It’s great to lock in our drivers for the 2022 season.

"All three drivers will bring something new and exciting to our team, and we really feel we’ll be able to launch into the season on the front foot.

"Angelo has shown that he was very fast in the Triple Eight car over the past couple of years. He tested with us recently and he will have no problem jumping towards the front of the field from the outset.

"Thomas has been testing with us and is showing great signs. He is a Supercars rookie, but he is making a steep learning curve look easy. We feel that he is going to be a surprise packet this year.

"And it’s great to have Tyler back with us. He took his first race win in 2019 and is a star on the rise. There’s no reason why he can’t start the season the way he finished it."

The new Super2 season will commence in Sydney Motorsport Park on March 4-6.
