Image: Richard Gresham<\/p>\n<p>Moore was the talk of the pit lane 12 months ago when he split with Triple Eight in the wake of its deal with Ford, having elected to take a new role with GM.<\/p>\n<p>The long-time T8 technical director was immediately taken off its travelling crew and threatened with 12 months on the sidelines; the team claiming a six-month notice period and a six-month non-compete.<\/p>\n<p>A peace deal was eventually reached to enable Moore to start with GM following the notice period, under the condition that he did not attend events or visit team workshops for his new employer.<\/p>\n<p>Moore was, though, able to offer arms-length support to GM\u2019s Supercars program in the second half of last year and was a key figure in the end-of-season wind tunnel testing.<\/p>\n<p>Not earmarked as a performance personnel member of any team at Albert Park, he\u2019s taking an observer\u2019s role.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m basically just looking at the GM teams and seeing how they\u2019re operating and how we can improve in the future,\u201d Moore told Speedcafe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI did a lot of the design and the components on the Camaro beforehand, so I\u2019m just seeing how they\u2019re building the cars, seeing if I can give tips on how to improve all that sort of stuff, just the operational side.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was at the wind tunnel test as well, so just keeping an eye on how the cars are relative to each other, just to sort of follow through on that side of things, that we got it pretty close.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think [the parity] worked out pretty well in Sydney, but it\u2019s another aero-sensitive track, so keeping an eye on how the car\u2019s relative paces are and to be part of the GM, Team Chevy family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1005747\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Jeromy-Moore-conversation.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>Jeromy Moore.

I\u2019ve been involved with Supercars for 20 years or so on my life, so I love the category.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want it still to be healthy and strong, so that maybe when I get bored of being overseas, I want to come back to Australia, there\u2019s something for me to come back to.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/t.cfjump.com\/92797\/b\/285241\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" data-bid=\"1\" data-no-instant=\"1\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none; vertical-align: middle;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/285241.gif\" alt=\"\"\/><br \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jeromy Moore in the Supercars paddock at Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix.
