Brad Jones Racing

Brad Jones Racing

At G8 Energy, performance, precision, and long-term commitment are values that drive everything we do — both in business and in the communities we support.

We are proud to sponsor Brad Jones Racing (BJR), one of Australia’s most recognised and respected teams in Australian motorsport.

Our passion for motorsport aligns closely with the discipline, innovation, and high-performance culture that defines both racing and the energy industry. Success in motorsport requires strategic thinking, technical excellence, teamwork, and the ability to perform under pressure — values that strongly reflect how we approach project development and delivery at G8 Energy.

Supporting Brad Jones Racing represents more than sponsorship; it reflects our appreciation for Australian motorsport and our commitment to backing teams that consistently strive for excellence at the highest level of competition.

As we continue building large-scale renewable energy and battery storage projects across Australia, we are proud to stand behind organisations like BJR that represent determination, resilience, and elite performance.

We look forward to supporting the team throughout the season and being part of their continued success on and off the track.
