PremiAir Racing signs Tim Slade for 2023 Supercars Championship

PremiAir Racing has signed Tim Slade for the 2023 Supercars Championship season, the first season featuring the new Gen3 regulations.

“I’m excited to be joining Pete [Xiberras] and his team at PremiAir Racing,” Slade said.

“I admire Pete’s passion and drive to succeed and am very much looking forward to contributing and furthering the progress the team has made in year one.”

Slade is racing for Blanchard Racing Team this season and is currently placed eleventh overall.

“Whilst I’m excited for what lies ahead, there’s also part of me that is sad to be leaving the Blanchard family and team,” said Slade.

“I have made some great memories over the past two years. I would like to say a big thanks to the Blanchards, the team and the wider CoolDrive family.”

The 37-year-old is going to drive a Chevrolet Camaro for PremiAir Racing next season.
