James Golding returns to S5000 for Race Tasmania

James Golding will compete in the S5000 series opener at Race Tasmania.

The Supercars driver has competed in the category each year since the inaugural 2019 season, with eight race wins across 19 podiums.

“I’m really excited to be back in S5000 for Race Tasmania,” said Golding.

“It’s a very enjoyable car to drive, and it’s what really set the foundation for me to get back into a Supercars seat so I’ll always take any opportunity I can to go racing in S5000.”

“Symmons Plains is a track where I’ve had a fair bit of pace, so there’s plenty of confidence in what we can deliver on the weekend.”

Golding will join a five-pronged attack from Garry Rogers Motorsport for his one-off entry.

“I’m looking forward to working with the team to try and bring the whole GRM attack up towards the podium places.”

“The field is super stacked and one of the most competitive fields we’ve seen, which is another reason why I’m really looking forward to it.”

“With all the talent on track, it’s going to be very interesting to see how it all pans out.”

The 2023 S5000 Australian Drivers Championship begins 24-26 February at Race Tasmania.
