David ‘D-Russ’ Russell will reunite with James Golding and PremiAir Nulon Racing for the 2025 Supercars endurance season following a highly successful campaign this year.
This year in the #31 PremiAir Nulon Racing Camaro, Golding and the highly experienced ‘D-Russ’ brought home the first ever podium for both the team and Golding with P3 at the Sandown 500, before finishing just outside the top five of the Bathurst 1000 (P6).
“It is fantastic to continue on a great relationship with PremiAir Nulon Racing,” Russell said.
“It was great working with Jimmy over the two enduros this year and if we reflect back, there are some really nice results there, obviously with Sandown as a highlight.
“It is great to be able to have the continuity, that is important when you are going into enduro racing, to be able to continue to work with the same driver and the same team and continue to help evolve things and improve things so hopefully we can go for those enduro races and give ourselves a chance to move further up the podium from where we were at Sandown.”
One of Australia’s most experienced Porsche Carrera Cup drivers, Russell’s credentials as a Supercars co-driver are undeniable, stretching back to 2001 and featuring two Bathurst 1000 podiums (3rd in 2021 and 2nd in 2023).
“I really enjoyed partnering with D-Russ in the 2024 endurance races. He did a fantastic job, so to have him back for 2025 was a no-brainer,” Golding said.
“Dave Seamlessly joined our team and worked beyond his role as a driver to help improve our team’s performance on multiple levels.”
“He is a great character to have around for team morale, and that is an important part of continuing our growth as we head into 2025.”
Russell also has plenty of Bathurst successes outside of Supercars to his name, including in every Bathurst Production Car / GT endurance race format and plenty of international success in GT racing.
“David is a great fit for our team, and we all enjoyed working with him across 2024, so we are delighted that we have been able to lock him in for the 2025 endurance season,” PremiAir Nulon Racing Team Owner Peter Xiberras, said.
“Obviously, his credentials as a co-driver are impeccable, but it is about more than that – the perspective he brings to our team and how he works with us all is really well appreciated, and we are very much looking forward to another endurance season together.”
Following the weekend’s season-ending Adelaide 500, PremiAir Nulon Racing is busy working through a preparation program ready for the 2025 Supercars Championship, which will kick off with the 2025 Sydney 500 across February 21-23.
