For Le Brocq, 2019 marks his fifth Enduro Cup campaign, and his second as the lead driver.

In his four previous starts in the Bathurst 1000, Le Brocq raced for four different manufacturers, namely Mercedes AMG, Ford, Nissan and Holden, with top-ten results of fourth and seventh coming in 2016 and ’17.

Le Brocq also registered a third place result in the 2014 Bathurst 12 Hour, while also finishing second in the 2017 Dunlop Super2 Bathurst 250.
