After joining Todd Hazelwood and Brad Jones Racing at the Symmons Plains round of the Supercars Championship, Scandia stoves returns as naming rights partner for the team’s home venue at Winton.

It is the first time Hazelwood will compete at Winton with BJR as he hopes to find consistency after a tough start to the season.

“It’s fantastic to have Scandia back on board with us for Winton,” Hazelwood said.

“I’m also pumped to be racing at Winton as it will be my first time with BJR.

“It always provides a great regional crowd and it’s also the home round for the team. I’ll be giving it my all to get a nice result in return for all the hard work and effort the whole team has been putting in.

“We also saw some very chilly conditions at the test day last Tuesday so the Scandia fireplace will come in handy for this event!”

Hazelwood is confident a team test day last week will be beneficial to his results this weekend.

“I feel like we’re fully prepared for this event after our BJR test day at Winton last week,” he said.

“There’s no better preparation than cutting laps and fine tuning the chassis on the exact track we’ll be racing on.

“It’s important for us to keep an open mind though as the tyre we’ll be racing on this weekend is softer and completely different, but hopefully everything we’ve worked on pays off.”

Managing director of Scandia Group, Jake Cassar is pleased to continue the company’s partnership with BJR.

“We’re proud to be supporting Brad Jones Racing once again and continuing to get behind the Aussie business,” Cassar said.

“The livery looked fantastic the last time we were on board at Symmons Plains so we’re looking forward to seeing the Scandia Racing livery on track at Winton this weekend.

“It’s going to be a chilly one on track so hopefully the team can turn up the heat with some great results.

“Bringing people together to relax, engage and enjoy themselves is what Scandia is all about so we hope everyone has a great time cheering on the Scandia Racing Commodore this weekend.”
