Why Courtney and Tickford are a dream match

James Courtney has been around the block in his motorsport career it's fair to say. After a single-seater career cut short, he's won everything there is to win in Supercars. Following a rocky ride recently in the Australian category, he's found a happy hunting ground with Tickford Racing.

Sydney Motorsport Park, 27 June, 2020. James Courtney sits in a Tickford Mustang. There’s not a hint of familiarity to his surrounds. He’s only been in the car once, for a seat fitting the previous day in that very same trackside garage.

Now he’s about to drive the car for the very first time. He has two 20-minute practice sessions to get used to it before qualifying, which is in less than two hours time. By mid-afternoon, he will have already have finished his first race as a Tickford driver.
