The Queenslander is at Winton with the team today turning his maiden Supercars laps ahead of the July 31-August 2 event.<\/p>\n

Taylor replaces Jordyn Sinni aboard MCM\u2019s second Walkinshaw-owned ZB Commodore in what is currently a one-off deal.<\/p>\n

The teenager drove for the Walkinshaw Academy in last year\u2019s Toyota GR Cup and retains a link to the Supercars outfit.<\/p>\n

He currently competes for TekworkX in Porsche Michelin Sprint Challenge, sitting third in that series following the most recent round in Townsville.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe did the deal on Sunday,\u201d team boss Amin Chahda told Speedcafe.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019d looked at doing something for Darwin but he was running in Porsche Challenge there and they decided not to do the double.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the moment it\u2019s only for Perth but there\u2019s a chance he\u2019ll do Bathurst too, because Porsche doesn\u2019t run there either.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday is all about getting him in the car and getting him comfortable and we\u2019ll go from there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sinni\u2019s place in the team had been in doubt prior to Darwin due to a budget shortfall.<\/p>\n

Matt Chahda continues in the squad\u2019s other car and sits 15th in the standings following the opening two rounds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lincoln Taylor pictured in 2025 with Walkinshaw CEO Bruce Stewart.
