TEAM 18 has announced the arrival of World Gym as a sponsor of its 2026 Repco Supercars Championship program.<\/p>\n

The fitness brand will feature on the rear wing of Anton De Pasquale<\/a>\u2019s #18 Camaro in what is a blast from the past, the driver and company having shared a relationship in the Super2 Series nearly a decade ago.<\/p>\n

The main game partnership will see Team 18\u2019s drivers and staff granted full access to World Gym facilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to welcome World Gym to the Team 18 family for 2026,\u201d said team owner Charlie Schwerkolt.<\/p>\n

\u201cFitness and conditioning are critical in modern Supercars racing, not just for our drivers, but for our pit crew and operational staff who push themselves just as hard.<\/p>\n

\u201cWorld Gym\u2019s facilities, equipment and recovery resources will be a huge asset as we prepare for what will be a massive year for our team as the new Chevrolet homologation outfit.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnton has had a long association with World Gym, so it\u2019s fantastic to now expand that relationship across the whole team.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re proud to represent such a strong and growing brand on our Chevrolet this season and we look forward to building a powerful partnership together.\u201d<\/p>\n
