We\u2019ve shared some great memories together, and I\u2019m proud of our achievements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the same time, I feel it\u2019s the right moment to take the next step in my career. This hasn\u2019t been an easy decision, but one that I believe is best for my long-term future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy focus now is on the remainder of the season and delivering the best results I possibly can.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>PremiAir Racing is expected to undertake a double driver change next season with Richie Stanaway also unlikely to return.<\/p>\n<p>The team is understood to have lined up a deal with Jayden Ojeda, while Declan Fraser is the favourite to land the second seat.<\/p>\n<p>Team owner Peter Xiberras said at the AirTouch 500 that he won\u2019t lock in his line-up until after next month\u2019s Bathurst 1000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"James Golding.
