Paul Weel

Paul Anthony Weel (born 21 July 1979) is an Australian racing driver who has competed in the V8 Supercars, Boost Mobile Super Trucks, and SCORE International.

He lives on the Gold Coast.

Racing career As a V8 Supercars driver, Weel raced 12 seasons in the series with a best finish of third at the 2003 Clipsal 500; he initially finished fourth, but a penalty for Russell Ingall promoted Weel onto the podium. His best enduro finish was a fifth at the 2002 Queensland 500 and best Bathurst 1000 finish was eighth in 1999.

From 2006, Weel decided to retire from full-time driving to devote more time to his PWR Performance Products business. On 10 October 2008, Weel was involved in a massive crash during a practice session at Bathurst; his stopped car was hit by Chris Pither in the Reid Park sector, leading to back fractures, a split spleen, and punctured lung. In 2009, he participated in the Sepang 12 Hours and finished fifth overall.

Weel returned to driving when he joined the Boost Mobile Super Trucks in 2020. The following month at Reid Park Street Circuit saw him win the final two races for his first career overall weekend victory.

In 2022, Weel and fellow Boost Mobile Super Trucks driver Toby Price formed Team Australia to compete in American desert racing. The team won for the first time at the SCORE International Baja 500 in 2024.
