Supercars confirms team representative changes to board

Supercars has confirmed change to its board, with Dick Johnson Racing Team Principal Dr Ryan Story replacing Penrite Racing owner Stephen Grove.

In a statement released Wednesday, Grove has resigned from his role on the Supercars Board to dedicate more focus to his business and his team, Grove Racing.

Grove joined the board in 2022, the first year of his sole ownership of Penrite Racing.

At least two team representatives must be on the board as non-voting members, with Story joining Walkinshaw and Brad Jones.
