Rising WA driver Mason Harvey to compete at Supercars round
One of WA's rising drivers is set to showcase his talents during the V8 Supercars visit to Perth this weekend.
Mason Harvey is a two-time WA Saloon Car State Champion but has made the move to the Aussie Racing Cars championship for the 2025 season.
The 20-year-old has made a strong start across the opening two rounds of the campaign, with a string of front-row starts, podiums, and lap records.
Now, Harvey heads to his home circuit in Wanneroo ready to make a statement, having claimed his first victory in Tasmania last time out.
'Winning in Tassie was massive for us,' Harvey said.
'We've been building for this, and to now come back to Perth with that momentum, in front of my home crowd, it's going to be something special. I'll be giving it everything.'
The series will join the Supercars on track for four of their seven rounds, with Perth the third stop on the calendar after rounds in Sydney and the Apple Isle.
Harvey sits equal fourth in the standings, just eight points behind leader Kody Garland, in what is set to be a vicious championship fight.
The 22-car field includes Olympian John Steffenson, while Garland, Joel Heinrich and Jack Boyd join Harvey in the fight for the title.
It is set to be a big weekend for WA racers as Supercars and Bathurst 1000 champion Brodie Kostecki returns to his home track with Dick Johnson Racing.

Brown out of top 10 again as Wood claims provision pole
Will Brown's horror qualifying run has continued, missing out on the top 10 for a third race at the Darwin Triple Crown. The reigning Supercars champion's 11th-place result in qualifying for race 19 gives Triple Eight teammate Broc Feeney the chance to extend his 143-point lead at the top of the standings even further on Sunday. Walkinshaw Andretti United's Ryan Wood secured preliminary pole with a lap time of one minute 6.071 seconds, a full 16-hundredths of a second over surprise packet Macauley Jones. The gap from Jones in second to Chaz Mostert in 10th was just 11-hundredths of a second. Jones will jump second last in the top-10 shootout as he looks to better his previous best qualifying result of fourth. "We made some pretty big changes. I wasn't really happy with the car, it's just very finicky to get right," the Brad Jones Racing man told Fox Sports. "The window is very small so we've tried to open up that window and it just felt good out of the gate, really. "And when you're confident out of the gate, you're confident to just find those little extra half-10th areas and that's kind of where the improvements came from." Feeney was third, two-thousandths of a second behind Jones, and ahead of Jack Le Brocq and Grove Racing teen sensation Kai Allen. Allen has been in the best form of his rookie Supercars season at Hidden Valley Raceway this weekend, snagging a maiden podium with a third-place finish on Saturday. Brad Jones driver Andre Heimgartner was sixth, while Anton De Dasquale overcame clutch issues in the first qualifying session to take seventh spot. Matt Payne, Cam Hill and Mostert rounded out the 10. Alongside Brown, Brodie Kostecki and Tickford Racing drivers Cam Waters and Thomas Randle were the big names to miss out on the shootout. Jaxon Evans was ruled out of Sunday's action after his Brad Jones Racing Camaro suffered heavy damage in a crash on the first lap of Saturday's opening race. Drivers return for the top-10 shootout to determine the final grid at 12.05pm (AEST), before race 19 gets underway at 3.10pm. RACE 19 QUALIFYING RESULTS: 1. Ryan Wood (Walkinshaw Andretti United) 2.
