Blanchard Racing Team (BRT) proudly unveils the Indigenous Round Liveries for both the Snowy River Racing and CoolDrive Racing Supercars, which will compete in this week’s Darwin Triple Crown at Hidden Valley Raceway.
Both cars will bear the extraordinary artwork of Presten Warren, a talented artist of Kokatha, Mirning, Wirangu, Arabana, and Dieri descent. Titled 'Two Tribes,' the captivating designs that are split across both BRT Supercars reflect Warren's deep connection to both the desert and saltwater countries.
"We are incredibly proud to carry Presten’s work into the race weekend,” says BRT co-Team Principal, Tim Blanchard.
“His art not only decorates our cars but brings forward an important narrative about cultural unity and the beauty of combining different worlds."
The No. 7 Snowy River Racing Mustang will trade its signature teal livery for a design showcasing the rich desert soil of the inland desert country, with driver James Courtney coming off a successful podium finish in Perth.
"We're heading into Darwin not only with high spirits from our Perth success but with a deeper sense of purpose," remarks Courtney.
"I've always believed that racing is more than just speed and competition; it's about the stories we tell and the legacy we leave,"
"The liveries tell a powerful story of connection and camaraderie that I'm proud to share as we race under the Darwin sun."
With a spectacular design featuring the deep ocean blues of saltwater country, Aaron Cameron shares his excitement of driving the No. 3 CoolDrive Racing Supercar at Hidden Valley.
"I feel privileged to participate in the Indigenous Round with such a special livery on the CoolDrive Racing Mustang,” says Cameron.
“It adds an extra layer of significance to every lap we complete."
Warren’s artwork places a vibrant river at its heart, weaving together landscapes with a visual narrative that embodies shared origins, connection, and movement. These elements merge to tell a unified story in two parts, brought to life through dynamic motion, rich colour, and deep ties to country. The river also serves as a powerful symbol for BRT, representing the strong unity and collaboration within the race team, as well as the enduring partnership between BRT and its partners.
At its heart, the work is about unity, love, and the beauty that forms when two worlds meet. It is a celebration of his blended heritage — the balance between land and sea, tradition and modern life, cultural roots and contemporary expression.
BRT is set to hit the track for Indigenous Round at the Darwin Triple Crown from 20-22 June 2025 at Hidden Valley Raceway
