Josh Fife has revealed his white-hot livery for the Kumho Super3 Championship which gets underway alongside the Supercars next week, at the famous Phillip Island circuit.

Sporting a white and blue livery, Josh is proudly sponsored by Natural Gas & Water for the 2019 championship season.

Located in Canberra, Natural Gas & Water supply and install a quality range of heating and cooling products.

Fife will also receive valued support from McLeod Media, Club Lime and Arai Helmets.

The Kumho Super3 Series will see a record 25-car field in 2019. Fife is one of ten drivers making their debut in the series, and at 18 years of age, is one of seven teenagers on the grid, also a new record for the category.

Fife is set to race alongside a mix of upcoming drivers and stalwarts of the series, making it one of the most highly anticipated and competitive fields the championship has ever seen.

This is the first of four rounds where the Super3 Series will feature in front of the Supercars audience, with Winton, Queensland Raceway and The Bend all to come later in the year. The finale will be a part of the Shannon’s Nationals series; with the ultimate winner to be crowned at Sandown Raceway.

“The test day at Phillip Island was really good and I gained a lot of knowledge out of the day. Andrew Jones and my engineer Paul Forgie were a great help in teaching me a lot of things I need to know heading into the first event.” said Fife.

“I can’t wait for the first round of the year at Phillip Island!”

To help solidify his confidence heading into the opening event, Josh will have one final test day at Phillip Island with team-mate Madeline Stewart, alongside other Super3 drivers next Wednesday, then the action is set to begin on Friday.
