Will Brown

William Brown (born 5 June 1998) is an Australian professional racing driver. He competes in the Repco Supercars Championship with Triple Eight Race Engineering, driving the No. 888 Ford Mustang S650. He has previously competed in the NASCAR Cup Series and the NASCAR Xfinity Series. Brown won the 2024 Supercars Championship driving for Triple Eight Race Engineering.

With championship wins in both the Formula 4 Australian Championship and the Toyota Gazoo Racing Australia 86 Series in 2016, Brown became one of only five drivers in Australian motorsport history to achieve two national racing titles in one year. In 2017, he received the Mike Kable Young Gun Award and was awarded The Peter Brock Medal by the Confederation of Australian Motorsport (CAMS) for his outstanding year in racing.

Junior racing career Karting (2011–2014) Brown started his career in karting in 2011 at the age of thirteen. He won numerous championships in his junior years and had an 80% win rate. He moved up the ranks and competed in the inaugural CAMS Jayco Australian Formula 4 Championship in 2015 with team BRM. He scored a best finish of third at Symmons Plains and was on course to win the final race of the season in Newcastle before blowing a gearbox. He finished ninth in the championship overall.

2020 Junior Driver Program In 2020, Hyundai Motorsport named Brown in the 2020 Junior Driver Program as one of four drivers who would race Hyundai Motorsport TCR cars in some of the leading championships in the category. Outside of Europe, Brown represented the Customer Racing Junior Driver Program. Brown dominated the inaugural Australian TCR season with seven wins in his debut driving TCR cars. He remained with the HMO Customer Racing team to defend his title.

Formula Regional (2025) Brown participated in the 2025 Formula Regional Oceania Championship for Giles Motorsport in the championship's first, second and fifth rounds. There he won the New Zealand Grand Prix.

Supercars Championship career Erebus Motorsport (2018–2023)

2018 Brown was named as a Supercars Endurance Cup co-driver, partnering Anton de Pasquale with Erebus Motorsport, where he immediately showed his elite driving ability throughout the three-race series. He continued to make solid progress in his Dunlop Super2 Series, landing sixth in the 2018 Driver's Championship with Eggleston Motorsport.

2019 Again partnering with de Pasquale at Erebus Motorsport in the Supercars championship, Brown's talent was on show, finishing second behind Craig Lowndes and ahead of Garth Tander in the Co-driver Race, taking his first podium in the series. Furthermore, Brown also accepted a drive in the inaugural S5000 series, competing alongside former F1 driver Rubens Barrichello.

2020 Brown began 2020 with a multi-year signing with Erebus Motorsport (Penrite Racing), which would see him compete in the Supercars series as a co-driver to David Reynolds in 2020, before becoming a full-time driver for the team from 2021. The Supercars Enduro Cup was reduced to a single race at Bathurst for 2020, where Brown and Reynolds finished fifteenth due to engine issues.

2021 Brown performed strongly in his first full-time Supercars season, achieving his first Supercars podium with second place in Race 22 at Sydney. He went on to score a maiden Armor All Pole Position the next weekend, starting on pole position for Race 23, again at Sydney Motorsport Park, but had to wait until Race 28 to claim his first Supercars race win. A stunning drive saw the Red Bull Australia drivers pressure Brown, but he held his nerve to become the 82nd driver to win an ATCC/Supercars race. He was the first rookie driver to win a Supercars race since 2013, when Scott McLaughlin and Chaz Mostert both took victories in their first full-time season.

2022 Brown had a mixed season in his second full-time Supercars season, only achieving a single podium at the first race at Sandown. He would also fail to start the last race at Pukekohe, after being involved in a major accident with Mark Winterbottom. He would finish fourteenth in the championship.

2023 Brown would improve massively in the first year in Gen3 machinery, compared to the previous year, with four wins and four pole positions. He would finish fifth in the standings.

Triple Eight Race Engineering (2024–present)

Brown won his first championship in 2024 after moving to Triple Eight Race Engineering.

2024 In August 2023, Brown announced his departure from Erebus to join Triple Eight Race Engineering, replacing the NASCAR bound Shane van Gisbergen. With Broc Feeney as his team-mate, he would endure his best year in the championship, with five wins across the season and a podium in every event, a feat not achieved since Dick Johnson in 1984, to secure his first title in the Supercars Championship.

Other racing TCR Series (2019–2025) Brown drove in the TCR Australia Touring Car Series for its inaugural season. He was crowned champion with one round remaining. He also competed in the series for 2022 and 2023. He participated in all rounds for the former, coming second overall, whilst missing the third round in the latter, coming eleventh.

Brown also competed in the 2025 TCR World Tour for the series seventh round at the Zhuzhou International Circuit.

NASCAR (2024–2025) Brown made his NASCAR debut in the Cup Series at Sonoma Raceway in 2024. On 15 May 2024, it was announced that Brown would make his NASCAR Cup Series debut at Sonoma Raceway, driving the No. 33 Chevrolet for Richard Childress Racing. Brown started 24th and was in the top-twenty at one point in the race before electrical issues relegated him to a 31st place finish, three laps down.

On 27 May 2025, it was announced that Brown would drive the No. 13 Chevrolet for Kaulig Racing at the Chicago Street Race on 6 July. On 7 August, it was announced that Brown would make his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut at Portland, driving the No. 11 Chevrolet for Kaulig Racing.

Personal life Alongside racing, Brown is a used car salesman for his father's business in Toowoomba. He also owns two planes and has a private pilot's licence.
