Team 18 has confirmed its 2025 Enduro Cup driver pairings, with the team to contest the year's longest races with a mixture of youth and experience.

Lee Holdsworth will pair up with David Reynolds in the #20 TRADIE Energy Racing Camaro, while Harri Jones will make his Supercars debut alongside Anton De Pasquale in the #18 DEWALT Chevrolet.

Holdsworth and Jones were named at Team 18 last week, and will get behind the wheel at Wednesday’s Destination NSW Sydney Test Day.

Holdsworth formally raced as a full-time driver with Team 18 from 2015 to 2018, and was teammates with Reynolds at Penrite Racing in 2022.

Jones, the defending two-time Porsche Carrera Cup Australia Champion, sealed his co-drive after a successful evaluation with the team at The Bend last December.

“I'm very excited to have Lee Holdsworth as my co-driver. He's one of the best blokes in pit lane,” Reynolds said.

"I was teammates with him full time back in 2022 and we had a really good year together. He’s a great racing driver and a better person, he brings up the vibe whenever he is around.

“He's very experienced in the big races and he's going to add a lot to our team.”

Holdsworth said: “I'm excited to be with Dave. We've been teammates in the past, we had a lot of fun together and now to team up, it's going to be really enjoyable.

“Team 18 has been going from strength to strength. They've shown some really good speed. It’s pretty cool to be back with my old race engineer Krusty [Richard Hollway, Race Engineer] as well.

“We’ve got a good crew, so I’m excited about 2025 and what we’ve got in store.”

De Pasquale added: “Super excited for Harri to join me for the enduros.

“He’s obviously a massive talent, he’s got some crazy good results in Porsches and I’m excited to have him in the Supercar. I think it's a great year for him to step in with a lot of new things happening with the tyres and formats.

“It's shaping up to be a really good team. We've got four good drivers. We can all bounce off each other and get on really well and hopefully have both cars right at the front come crunch time at The Bend and Bathurst.

“Harri will be a really good addition to that, he brings a lot of experience from other series, which is always really good as well.”

Jones said: "As a first-time co-driver this year, my main goal is to absorb as much as I can.

"Partnering with Anton is a great opportunity to fast track my development, given his years of success and experience. We're a great match, even down to sharing the same seat insert. Endurance season can't come quickly enough."
