Nicholas Paul Percat (born 14 September 1988) is an Australian racing driver who races in the Repco Supercars Championship, driving for Matt Stone Racing in the No. 10 Chevrolet Camaro.[1] He won the Bathurst 1000 at his first attempt, co-driving for Garth Tander for the Holden Racing Team. Percat attended Sacred Heart College in South Australia.[citation needed]
Key Information
Racing career
[edit].JPG)
Percat won the 2009 Australian Formula Ford Championship in his third season in the category having dominated the season after finishing runner up the previous year to Paul Laskaseski.[2] In 2011 he returned to single seaters for a one off support race for the 2011 Indian Grand Prix driving a Van Diemen built Formula MRF for a winner takes all $50,000 prize. He took pole position and won race one, the first-ever race held at the Buddh International Circuit, but was taken out in race two by eventual winner Jordan King.[3]
On 9 October 2011, he partnered Garth Tander to win the Bathurst 1000 race for the Holden Racing Team.[4] In winning the Bathurst 1000, Percat became the first South Australian born driver to win the race.

On 24 December 2014, it was announced that Percat would contest the 2015 season with Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport. He endured a mediocre season, with a best finish of 6th at the Gold Coast 600. He finished 22nd in the championship despite not racing in the final two rounds of the year due to a foot injury.
The 2016 season kicked off with Percat taking a shock win in unpredictable circumstances at the 2016 Clipsal 500 Adelaide, which was also the first win for the team.[5] Percat became the first South Australian driver to win the local event.
Percat continued his strong form at the 2016 Bathurst 1000 by scoring a podium with co-drive Cameron McConville. Percat has finished on the podium 3 times out of his 8 starts. Percat signed a contract to race for Brad Jones Racing, replacing outgoing driver Jason Bright. Results for Percat were mixed due to a horror run of bad luck from the BJR team. The highlight of the year was Percat's first podium for the team at the Darwin Triple Crown event.
Results for 2018 were much improved for Percat, and the whole BJR team, with Percat scoring 2 podiums at the Australian Grand Prix event, narrowly missing out on winning the Larry Perkins Trophy. Percat finished the year 10th in the championship, his best result to date.
In 2019 Percat took another step forward in the championship. He didn't score a podium, but was one of the most consistent drivers in the field and finished the year in 9th.
In 2020, he enjoyed his best Supercars season to date, finishing 7th in the Championship, claimed two wins during the Sydney SuperSprint round and a podium finish in the second race of the Darwin SuperSprint.
After five seasons with Brad Jones Racing, Percat announced on 26 October 2021 that he would be returning to Walkinshaw Andretti United in 2022 on a multiple-year deal.[6]
Following a period of disappointing results amid Walkinshaw’s debut season aboard Ford Mustang’s for 2023, it was announced on 21 August 2023 that he would no longer be driving for the team in 2024.

Early life
Childhood and education
Nicholas Percat was born on 14 September 1988 in Adelaide, South Australia.[1] He grew up in a family with strong ties to the automotive industry, as the son of Marc Percat, a mechanic and third-generation Holden employee.[5] His family's connection to Holden spans four generations, beginning with his great-grandfather Paolo, who migrated from Istria to Australia in 1949, settling in Adelaide after living in a migrant camp in nearby Mallala and taking a job at Holden's Woodville plant.[6] Percat's grandfather Italo also worked at Holden's Woodville and Elizabeth plants, while his father Marc was employed at the Elizabeth facility before Percat's birth.[6] As a child in Adelaide's southern suburbs, Percat was influenced by this automotive heritage.[5] He attended Sacred Heart College in Adelaide, graduating before pursuing other interests shaped by his family's legacy.[7] This upbringing in South Australia's industrial heartland provided a foundation that naturally extended to motorsport.Introduction to motorsport
Nick Percat's introduction to motorsport began in his early childhood in Adelaide, South Australia, where he discovered karting through his father, Marc, a mechanic.[7] At the age of five, Percat started tinkering with a go-kart found in his father's shed, but by age eight, he was actively competing in local events at tracks such as Bolivar and Oakbank, quickly establishing himself as a promising young driver.[7] During his adolescence, Percat's karting career progressed to more competitive levels within South Australia, where he achieved notable success by becoming a state junior champion.[7] He continued racing locally until around age 14, honing his skills on circuits across the state before venturing into national junior events. In 2003, at age 15, Percat made his national debut at the Australian Karting National Title in Ipswich, Queensland, finishing 10th in the Junior Clubman class.[8] The following year, he competed in the National Championship at Puckapunyal, Victoria, placing 12th overall, which marked his transition toward higher-profile circuit racing opportunities.[8] By 2007, Percat's talent caught the attention of established teams, leading to his signing as a development driver with Walkinshaw Racing, providing crucial support for his progression into professional single-seater categories.[1] This early backing from Walkinshaw underscored Percat's potential, setting the stage for his structured entry into competitive motorsport beyond karting.[1]Racing career
Pre-Supercars years (2007–2009)
Percat's early talent in motorsport was first identified through karting, which he began at age 9 in 1997 and pursued until age 14.[7] In 2007, at age 18, he transitioned to professional single-seater racing by signing with Walkinshaw Racing's development program, contesting the Australian Formula Ford Championship in a Spectrum 011b Ford.[1][9] Driving for the team, Percat completed all 24 races that season, securing one victory and 12 podiums to finish seventh in the drivers' standings.[10] He remained with Walkinshaw in 2008, switching to a Van Diemen RF06 Ford, where he competed in all 23 rounds, claimed nine wins and 17 podiums, and elevated to second place overall in the championship.[10][2] Percat's dominance peaked in 2009 during his third season in the series, now piloting a Mygale SJ07A Ford backed by No Fear for Sonic Motor Racing Services under Walkinshaw's support.[11][12] He won 12 of the 23 races, including 11 of the first 12 and a streak of 10 consecutive victories at the Hidden Valley Raceway round, while achieving 20 podium finishes to clinch the championship with 369 points—74 ahead of runner-up Mitch Evans.[11][13][14] This tally broke Steven Richards' longstanding record for the most race wins in Australian Formula Ford history and established Percat's reputation as a top prospect, preparing him for advancement to more advanced touring car categories.[1][15]Early Supercars appearances and development series (2010–2013)
Percat made his Supercars Championship debut at the 2010 Phillip Island 500, serving as co-driver for Andrew Thompson in Walkinshaw Racing's Holden VE Commodore.[16] This endurance event marked his entry into the premier series, following his dominant 2009 Australian Formula Ford Championship win that secured his pathway into higher-level competition.[1] In 2011, Percat achieved a breakthrough by co-driving with Garth Tander to victory in the Bathurst 1000 for the Holden Racing Team, becoming the first rookie winner in 34 years and the first South Australian-born driver to claim the prestigious endurance crown.[17][18] The dramatic last-lap battle against Ford Performance Racing's entry highlighted his composure under pressure, solidifying his reputation despite limited prior main-game experience.[17] Throughout 2010–2013, Percat's Supercars involvement remained partial, with appearances for Walkinshaw Racing, Holden Racing Team, and others, often as an endurance co-driver or wildcard entry.[2] He faced ongoing challenges securing a stable full-time seat, leading to fragmented campaigns and reliance on development series to build his profile.[12] In 2013, this included enduro co-driving duties for Tony D'Alberto Racing's entry, which utilized Ford Performance Racing-sourced equipment.[19] Parallel to his Supercars efforts, Percat competed in the Dunlop Super2 Series from 2010 to 2012, achieving a strong fourth-place finish in 2010 with Jay Motorsport and Eggleston Motorsport.[2][1] When a full-time Supercars drive failed to materialize in 2013, he shifted focus to the Porsche Carrera Cup Australia, where he secured second in the championship standings with five race wins driving a Porsche 997 GT3 Cup.[12][20]Walkinshaw Racing first stint (2014–2015)
Following a strong performance in the 2013 Porsche Carrera Cup Australia Championship, where he secured second place overall with multiple race wins including at Surfers Paradise, Nick Percat earned a full-time drive with Walkinshaw Racing for the 2014 V8 Supercars Championship season.[2][21] The opportunity came after years as a co-driver within the Walkinshaw system, allowing Percat to graduate to a primary seat in the #222 Holden VF Commodore supported by James Rosenberg Racing.[1] Percat's debut full-time campaign showcased consistent progress, highlighted by two podium results that underscored his growing confidence in the series. He achieved third place at the Sydney NRMA 500, marking his first main-game podium and signaling a breakout performance on the street circuit.[22] In the endurance rounds, Percat paired with Oliver Gavin to finish third at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000, a strong showing that built on his prior co-driving success there in 2011.[23] These achievements propelled him to 12th in the drivers' standings, a solid rookie result amid a competitive field dominated by established teams.[1] The stint concluded abruptly at the end of 2014 when Walkinshaw restructured its operations, prompted by the sale of Rosenberg's Racing Entitlements Contract, which reduced the team's full-time entries from four cars.[24] This left Percat without a confirmed seat for 2015, creating a period of uncertainty as he navigated the driver market despite his promising debut year.[25]Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport and Brad Jones Racing (2016–2018)
In 2016, Nick Percat joined Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport, marking a new chapter in his Supercars career following his departure from Walkinshaw Racing. Driving the No. 8 Holden VF Commodore, he achieved his maiden solo race victory in the series during the chaotic, rain-affected final race of the Clipsal 500 Adelaide, capitalizing on strategic pit stops and avoiding incidents that eliminated many frontrunners. This triumph made him the first South Australian driver to win the Adelaide street circuit event, while also securing LDM's inaugural Supercars victory. Percat added another podium finish later in the season at Darwin, contributing to a total of two podiums, one win, and one fastest lap across 30 races, culminating in an 18th-place championship finish with 1430 points.[26][2] Percat remained with LDM for the opening rounds of 2017 before the team folded mid-season due to financial issues, prompting a switch to Brad Jones Racing (BJR) in the Holden ZB Commodore. His debut year with BJR was challenging, marked by mechanical reliability problems, but he managed one podium at Symmons Plains and three fastest laps over 27 races, ending the season 19th in the drivers' standings with 1527 points.[2][27] By 2018, fully settled at BJR, Percat delivered a stronger performance, achieving consistent top-10 results and two podium finishes—at Barbagallo Raceway and The Bend Motorsport Park—across 31 races. Without a win or pole position that year, his improved pace and reliability led to a career-best 10th place in the championship with 2290 points, highlighting his growing consistency in a customer Holden team environment.[2][28][29]Brad Jones Racing (2019–2021)
In 2019, Nick Percat entered his third full season with Brad Jones Racing (BJR) as the team's lead driver, piloting the #8 National Pharmacies-sponsored Holden Commodore ZB in the Supercars Championship.[30] Despite a challenging year marked by consistent but winless performances, he achieved a career-high ninth-place finish in the drivers' standings with 2445 points, outperforming his teammates and contributing to BJR's improved midfield presence.[31] His strong qualifying average of 12.17 and average race finish of 10.19 highlighted his growing leadership role within the Albury-based squad.[32] The 2020 season, heavily disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and condensed into a series of SuperSprint events, marked a breakthrough for Percat at BJR, where he emerged as one of the series' standout performers amid the chaos. He secured his first victories since 2016 with back-to-back wins at the Sydney SuperSprint: Race 8 on June 28, where he held off Jamie Whincup in the seven-time champion's 500th start, and Race 10 on July 19 during the Truck Assist Sydney SuperSprint.[33][34] These triumphs, combined with multiple podiums including at Hidden Valley, propelled him to a seventh-place championship result with 1743 points, his best to date and a testament to BJR's engineering advancements under team principal Brad Jones.[35][36] Percat's momentum carried into 2021, his fifth and final year with BJR, where he again finished seventh in the standings with 2008 points, matching his 2020 result through reliable top-10 finishes and strategic racecraft. As the flagship driver, he provided stability and mentorship to teammates like Todd Hazelwood, helping BJR navigate the transitional final season of Holden's involvement in Supercars before General Motors' announced withdrawal at the end of the year.[37] His consistent performances underscored BJR's competitiveness in the Holden ZB era, with the team achieving its strongest aggregate results during Percat's tenure despite the impending shift to a new regulations cycle.[38]Walkinshaw Andretti United (2022–2023)
After spending five seasons with Brad Jones Racing, where he achieved consistent top-10 finishes and multiple race wins, Percat returned to Walkinshaw Andretti United in 2022 on a multi-year contract announced on October 26, 2021.[39] This move reunited him with the team he had raced for earlier in his career under its previous guise, positioning him as a key teammate to Chaz Mostert with the aim of bolstering the squad's competitiveness.[1] Percat's 2022 season marked a challenging adaptation period at Walkinshaw Andretti United, hampered by frequent engineer changes that disrupted development and consistency.[40] Driving the Holden Commodore ZB, he finished 15th in the drivers' championship with 1643 points across 34 races, a step down from his Brad Jones Racing highs, though he secured occasional podiums including two second-place finishes at the Adelaide 500.[2] These results highlighted flashes of potential amid mid-pack struggles, as the team grappled with internal adjustments following the Andretti United partnership expansion. The 2023 campaign intensified these difficulties with the introduction of Gen3 regulations, which brought standardized components and a shift to the Ford Mustang GT for Walkinshaw Andretti United—the team's first Ford entry since 2015.[41] Percat endured early-season car troubles and a lack of outright pace, starting the year 25th after two rounds and prompting the team to strip down his car for analysis.[42] Integration issues with the new platform and manufacturer contributed to inconsistent performance, culminating in a 20th-place championship finish with 1230 points over 27 races and no podiums, underscoring the transitional hurdles for the team.[2] Despite these setbacks, Percat showed signs of improvement later in the season, such as a fourth-place result at The Bend, but the overall period reflected broader challenges in unlocking the Gen3 Mustang's potential.[43]Matt Stone Racing (2024–2025)
In 2023, Nick Percat signed a multi-year contract with Matt Stone Racing, joining the team for the 2024 Repco Supercars Championship season alongside Cameron Hill in the Chevrolet Camaro squad.[44] Percat's 2024 campaign marked a significant resurgence, as he secured two race victories—at the Australian Grand Prix in March and the Symmons Plains round in April—contributing to an eighth-place finish in the drivers' championship.[45] These results highlighted the team's improved competitiveness, with Percat achieving multiple top-10 finishes and podium contention throughout the year. Entering 2025 as his second season with Matt Stone Racing, Percat drove the No. 10 Bendix Racing entry and posted consistent mid-pack results, including three podiums (two second-place finishes and one third) across 30 races as of November 20, 2025.[45] He also recorded 11 fastest laps, including at the Tasmania Super 440 and the Bathurst 1000, though the season proved challenging overall, leaving him in 10th position with 1217 points entering the final Adelaide rounds.[45] On October 7, 2025, Percat announced his retirement from full-time Supercars driving at the conclusion of the season, following the Adelaide 500 finale on November 27–30.[46] Reflecting on his 15-year career, he noted six total race wins and expressed gratitude for the opportunities across multiple teams, including his fresh start at Matt Stone Racing after prior stints at Walkinshaw Racing.[46] On November 13, 2025, Percat announced he would join Triple Eight Race Engineering as co-driver for Broc Feeney in 2026, replacing Jamie Whincup.[47]Achievements and records
Major race wins
Nick Percat's Supercars career features six race victories, each marking significant milestones for underdog teams and highlighting his adaptability across diverse conditions and circuits. His debut major win came at the 2011 Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000, where he co-drove the Holden VE Commodore with veteran Garth Tander for the Holden Racing Team, securing victory by a mere 0.3 seconds over the factory Triple Eight entry in a dramatic final-lap battle.[48] This triumph made Percat the first rookie co-driver to win the Bathurst 1000 since John Goss and Kevin Bartlett in 1977, a feat that underscored his rapid ascent from Formula Ford champion to endurance racing standout. Percat's first solo Supercars victory arrived in farcical circumstances at the 2016 Clipsal 500 in Adelaide, driving the #222 Holden VF Commodore for Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport during a rain-soaked Race 3 that saw multiple leaders spin off or crash. As a South Australian native, Percat capitalized on his home-track familiarity and cautious strategy to hold off the field, delivering LDM its sole series win before the team's rebranding to Tickford Racing and marking a breakthrough for a midfield outfit against dominant factory teams. This upset victory, his first in four years, boosted his confidence amid a challenging season.[49] In 2020, amid the COVID-19-disrupted season, Percat achieved back-to-back wins for Brad Jones Racing at the Sydney SuperSprint, ending a four-year drought. The first came in Race 8 on June 28, where he piloted the #8 Holden ZB Commodore to victory over Jamie Whincup in the seven-time champion's 500th start, aided by a strategic pit stop under a controversial rule interpretation that neutralized a safety car period. Just three weeks later, in Race 10 on July 19, Percat repeated the feat in the Truck Assist Sydney SuperSprint's second leg, again leveraging BJR's setup and his consistent pace to outmaneuver frontrunners like Scott McLaughlin, propelling him to third in the championship standings that year. These successes represented BJR's first race wins in nearly a decade and solidified Percat's reputation as a pressure performer for privateer squads.[34][33] Percat ended a 118-race winless streak in 2024 with Matt Stone Racing, starting with a stunning solo victory in Race 6 at the Australian Grand Prix support event at Albert Park on March 24. Driving the #10 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, he fended off Camaro teammates Thomas Randle and Tim Slade in a late-race duel after early chaos, including a collision involving Matt Payne and Chaz Mostert, to break Triple Eight Race Engineering's perfect start to the season and claim MSR's first win since 2019. Later that year, on August 17 at the NED Whisky Tasmania SuperSprint in Symmons Plains, Percat executed a masterful overcut strategy in Race 17, starting 10th but emerging ahead of pole-sitter Chaz Mostert and Brodie Kostecki to secure his second victory of the campaign by 0.6 seconds. This Symmons Plains win reversed his prior poor fortunes at the track—no top-eight finishes in 23 previous starts—and contributed to his eighth-place championship finish, tying his career-best with multiple wins for a fourth different team.[50][51]Championship highlights
Nick Percat achieved his career-best championship finishes of seventh place in both the 2020 and 2021 Supercars Championships while driving for Brad Jones Racing, highlighted by consistent top-10 results and two race victories in 2020 that underscored his competitive edge during a challenging season.[52][53] These performances marked a peak in his full-time Supercars career, where he demonstrated reliability and strategic prowess, amassing points through multiple podiums and strong qualifying efforts. In 2025, his final full-time season with Matt Stone Racing, Percat secured three podium finishes, including two second places and one third. Across his Supercars tenure spanning 2010 to 2025, Percat recorded 22 podium finishes, two pole positions, and participated in 371 race starts as of November 2025, reflecting his longevity and adaptability in a highly competitive field.[45][25] In his pre-Supercars years, he set a record in the 2009 Australian Formula Ford Championship by securing 12 wins in 23 races, dominating the series and claiming the title with a 72-point margin over second place.[11] Percat holds the distinction as the first South Australian-born driver to win the Bathurst 1000 in 2011, co-driving with Garth Tander for Holden Racing Team, and the first South Australian to claim victory at the Clipsal 500 Adelaide in 2016 under rain-shortened conditions.[54][26] Beyond outright victories, his endurance racing contributions include multiple top-five finishes at Sandown and Bathurst, which bolstered his championship standings and highlighted his expertise in long-distance events.[55]Career results

Bathurst 1000 results
Percat made his debut in the Bathurst 1000 in 2011, partnering three-time Supercars champion Garth Tander in the No. 1 Holden VE Commodore for the Holden Racing Team. The pair led for much of the 161-lap race at Mount Panorama Circuit, fending off a late charge from Craig Lowndes and Mark Skaife in the No. 6 Ford FG Falcon to secure victory by just 0.29 seconds—the closest finish in the event's modern history. This triumph marked Percat as the first rookie co-driver to win the Bathurst 1000 since Jacky Ickx in 1977, achieved on his very first attempt after qualifying on pole position.[59][46] Over the following 14 years, Percat competed in every Bathurst 1000, accumulating 15 starts across multiple teams and marques. His subsequent performances included two additional podium finishes: third place in 2014 alongside British sportscar ace Oliver Gavin in the No. 222 Holden VF Commodore for Tekno Autosports (James Rosenberg Racing), where they capitalized on reliability to climb from a mid-pack start; and another third in 2016 with Supercars veteran Paul Dumbrell in the No. 22 Holden VF Commodore for Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport, delivering the team's best result in a rain-affected race. These results contributed to Percat's career tally of one win, three podiums, and six top-10 finishes from 15 starts, with 13 race finishes overall.[23][25] Percat's later entries featured a mix of strong runs and challenges, often hampered by mechanical issues common in the demanding endurance event. Notable examples include a 14th-place finish in 2023 with Fabian Coulthard in the No. 2 Ford Mustang GT for Walkinshaw Andretti United, recovering from an early setback to post competitive pace; 17th in 2024 with Dylan O'Keeffe in the No. 10 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 for Matt Stone Racing after a penalty for a loose door; and a retirement in 2025 after 50 laps with Tim Slade in the same No. 10 Camaro due to engine failure, marking a disappointing end to his full-time participation in the event.[60][61][62]| Year | Team | Co-Driver | Car | Finishing Position |
