Australian Supercars star Broc Feeney will join Ford Racing GT3 factory drivers Dennis Olsen and Christopher Mies in HRT Ford Racing’s Pro class Mustang GT3 entry for next month’s Meguiar’s Bathurst 12 Hour.

The lineup was revealed during Ford Racing’s ‘Season Launch’ event in Detroit on Thursday evening.

The 23-year-old Australian, who finished third in last year’s Supercars overall championship and won the inaugural Sprint Cup title with Triple Eight Race Engineering, which switches to Mustangs this season, will make his debut at the wheel of the Multimatic-built GT3 contender.

He’ll be joined by former Bathurst 12H winners Olsen and Mies.

Mies, considered one of the most experienced international drivers at Mount Panorama, claimed back-to-back victories in Australia’s international enduro in 2011/12, driving Audi R8 LMS cars for Joest Racing and Phoenix Racing respectively.

Olsen, meanwhile, took top overall honors in the 2019 event, co-driving an Earl Bamber Motorsport Porsche 911 GT3 R.

Feeney, who won the 2025 GT World Challenge Australia powered by AWS championship in a Melbourne Performance Centre Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo II, has five previous Bathurst 12H starts, having won in class on his debut in 2020 and finished third in Pro-Am in 2022 at the wheel of a Triple Eight-run Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo.

“The Bathurst 12 Hour is one of the most prestigious endurance races in international motorsport,” said HRT CEO Ulrich Fritz. “This factory entry is a great honor for us.

“Ford Racing is giving us the opportunity to compete on the legendary Mount Panorama Circuit for the first time.

“We are looking forward to the challenge of competing against the best teams in the world and are highly motivated to deliver a strong debut.

“Our entire team has prepared intensively to meet the special demands of this track. We are ready to make history and offer our fans an exciting race.”

Next month’s race will mark the highly anticipated debut of the Mustang GT3 at Mount Panorama, joined by two Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.Rs, also in its first race appearance, entered by JMR Johor Motorsports.
