David Wall joins Volvo Polestar Racing for 2015

David Wall is going to replace Robert Dahlgren in the #34 car at Volvo Polestar Racing in the 2015 V8 Supercars.
“I cannot begin to tell you how eager I am to join Volvo Polestar Racing for the 2015 V8 Supercars season. I am really impressed with how they came out of the box this year in what was a stellar debut season for the team,” said Wall.

The former double Australian GT champion raced for Dick Johnson Racing this year and follows their former title sponsor Wilson Security to the Volvo outfit for 2015.

“I spent some time racing alongside David’s dad, Des. If David shows the same tenacity and determination his father exhibited I’m sure he will have success at GRM. Obviously it’s a challenge for David and our team, but I take notice of all drivers in the V8 Supercars Championship and David has shown ability. I am confident we will provide him with a car that will enable him to illustrate his potential,” said GRM owner Garry Rogers.

Wall is placed 21st in the drivers’ championship ahead of the season finale next weekend with fifth place as best individual result in 2014.

“We are glad to have David on board and we hope that he can evolve together with us and take the next step forward in the 2015 V8 Supercars,” said Polestar owner Christian Dahl.

Dahlgren was announced last week to return to Sweden to join Volvo and Polestar on other assignments.
