Erebus Motorsport bolstered by new Team Principal
Brad Tremain steps into Team Principal role at The Bend
Tremain oversaw two Bathurst wins, 2023 title double
Erebus Motorsport will be bolstered by Brad Tremain commencing his second term as Team Principal this weekend.
Tremain returns after a two year stint in the United States with IndyCar team Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing.
He previously spent nine years with Erebus between 2016 and 2024, working his way up from number two mechanic to Crew Chief and Team Principal.
Tremain oversaw a championship double in 2023, and Bathurst wins in 2017 and 2024.
Tremain steps into the role from this weekend’s AirTouch 500 at The Bend, his experience coming at a crucial time as Erebus currently sits 11th in the teams’ championship.
“Being in America, I’ve seen a different side of motorsport with big teams and big budgets and I’ve seen where their resources could be used more effectively,” Tremain said.
“In the past, I focused more on the cars and working on the cars, whereas this time around I’m going to put more of my focus on the people running them.
“Improving car speed and reliability, getting the crew together and lifting morale will be my priority for the remainder of the year.
"Erebus is my home. Baz [Ryan, CEO] is a really good mate of mine and I want to go racing with him and the rest of the crew again. And l just love Supercars."
Ryan added: “It is always nice when someone you like and respect comes home.
“Brad is one of the most passionate racers I know. He has all the skills needed to run a race team, with mechanical, engineering and management experience gained largely during his eight years with Erebus.
“I know the skills he has learned during his recent time in IndyCar racing will make him an even bigger asset to Erebus.
“Brad will be the best Team Principal in pit lane but also someone that is willing and able to do pit stops if required, his versatility is unquestionable.”
