Cam Waters delivers heartfelt response to latest heartbreak
Tickford star eliminated from 2026 Finals at Sandown Semi Final
Waters vows to end 2026 season on a high in Adelaide
Cam Waters is out to finish his 2026 campaign "on a high" despite falling short of a shot at the championship.
The Tickford Racing driver was eliminated from the 2026 Repco Supercars Finals Series after a troubled run in the Penrite Oil Sandown 500 finale.
Waters and Tickford gave themselves a fighting chance to qualify after a brilliant podium charge on Saturday, but a qualifying slump put Waters back under pressure.
While he moved forward in the race, it was too little, too late.
Waters now heads to Adelaide to round out his 11th season with the Melbourne team, having made his full-time debut with the outfit at Adelaide in 2016.
It comes after Waters finished 15th in the Repco Bathurst 1000.
In a heartfelt message posted to his social media, Waters praised his fans for the support, and maintained he'll be doing everything he can to make sure the Grand Final is one to remember.
"My 11th year driving with this operation and we’re heading to the circuit where I made my full-time professional Supercars debut with the team back in 2016," Waters wrote.
"But sadly, and for the second consecutive year, I won’t be in the running to challenge for the ultimate prize I have been striving for since I was a kid.
"Despite the disappointment, I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to all of my fans who have supported me since I arrived in Supercars and to let you know I will be doing all I can to finish the 2026 season on a high."
Track action in Adelaide commences on Thursday November 26.
