Love to make racing return

After a 96-day hiatus, former Supercars driver Aaron Love will make a welcome return to motorsport in a Ferrari.

Having lost his full-time Supercars drive on the eve of the Australian Grand Prix by Blanchard Racing Team, Love has been in the wilderness over the last three months.

But he will be back in the hot seat on May 30-June 1 racing a Ferrari 296 GT3 in the GT World Challenge Australia.

Love will make a cameo return, replacing his absent brother Jordan in the second Arise Racing Ferrari entry alongside Steve Wyatt at the third round of the GT World Challenge Australia at Queensland Raceway.

It will be a boost for Love, who struggled during his rookie Supercars season and left the team in unceremonious circumstances after clashing with teammate James Courtney in qualifying.

After suddenly losing his Supercars seat, it was unclear what was next for Love, so he is thrilled to return to racing again.

“It’s a really nice feeling to be going racing again after a couple months away from a racetrack,” said Love.

“To be doing it with Steve and the whole team at Arise in a Ferrari makes it a pretty cool weekend back I must say.

“I’ve known most of the team and Steve for quite some time now, so it’s been a nice warm welcome back coming into the round.

“Steve has done the first two rounds now with my brother so I think he’s getting nice and comfortable with the car and I’ll be there to help him continue along that path.

“For myself, it’s my first weekend in the car so it might take a little bit of adjusting from what I’ve been driving the last couple of years, but I think we should get the ball rolling once we get stuck into the weekend.

“It’s been a difficult year so far for me with my racing in general so I’m just really looking forward to going racing and having fun again, I get to do it in a pretty cool car and some really good people around me so I think it should be a good weekend.”

In addition to Supercars and his Super2 season prior to his main game season, Love built his career in Porsches.

He took an impressive 12 wins from 18 starts in the 2022 Porsche Carrera Cup Australia season and also had a crack in France and the top-tier SuperCup in in Europe.

Having solely focused on Supercars over the last two years, Love will focus on GT racing in a Ferrari around the “Paperclip.”
