Whincup 2009 V8 Supercar Champion


Jamie Whincup takes back-to-back V8 Supercar Championships with a good result in the second last race of the season, followed by an un-champion-like final race. The Holden Racing Team are able to scrape home with the Teams Championship as a consolation prize.

Will Davison was able to nab the Barry Sheene Medal along with his runners up position in the Championship. A stellar performance and one of the favourites for 2010. Dick Johnson Racing were able to finish on a high, with James Courtney winning the last race and the team are hoping the momentum can continue into next year.
