For the second year in a row, Jonathon Webb will return to the Mountain in the Super2 Series.
Last year he made an unexpected comeback with Eggleston Motorsport and in 2025 he will take on Mount Panorama in a Masterton Motorsports Mustang.
Webb has plenty of Bathurst pedigree, winning both the Great Race and 12 Hour in 2016 famously.
The 2009 Super2 champion will add plenty of experience to the development series field having raced in Supercars for more than a decade.
His full-time career was highlighted by a special win in the infamously wet Sydney 500 finale of 2010, while his last Supercars start was a co-drive at PremiAir.
At Bathurst last year Webb finished 11th in the round.
Webb is looking forward to returning to the Super2 Series.
“It’s always special coming back to Bathurst,” Webb said. “James and the team at Masterton Motorsports have done a great job getting the Mustang ready, and having the support of Nulon makes it even better.
“They’re passionate about Australian motorsport, and it’s great to have them involved.
“The Super2 grid is full of strong drivers.
“Our aim is to run cleanly, stay consistent, and build speed through each session.”

Some of the leading drivers in the history of the Supercars Championship include Peter Brock, who is often referred to as the "King of the Mountain" for his nine victories at the Bathurst 1000, a race that is considered one of the biggest in the series. Other notable drivers include Dick Johnson, Marcos Ambrose, Craig Lowndes, Shane van Gisbergen, Jamie Whincup, who holds the record for the most championship titles, and Mark Skaife, who has also been a dominant force in the series.
The Bathurst 1000, held at Mount Panorama Circuit in Bathurst, New South Wales, is arguably the most famous race in the Supercars calendar. Other significant races include the Sandown 500 and the Adelaide 500, which are known for their challenging circuits and thrilling competitions.
