The 10-year wait for a Supercars champion halted by coronavirus
When the Supercars season resumes James Courtney will be a Tickford Racing driver - but it's not the first time the star driver has flirted with the famous Ford squad
It's been a rollercoaster few months for 2010 Supercars champion James Courtney.
His much-publicised move to the new Team Sydney venture was subject to constant on-again, off-again rumours for months and when it did happen, it didn't last long. A week after the Adelaide 500 he walked away from the team citing that a big commitment "hadn't been honoured".
Then there was a wildcard deal in the works to run a third Erebus car, which was scuppered by the break induced by the coronavirus crisis. The final twist - at least so far - arrived last week when the smoke for a Will Davison/Courtney switch proved to have plenty of fire behind it.
