Matt Stone Racing is proud to announce a new partnership with Dabble ahead of the Darwin Supercars round with the reveal of Cameron Hill’s Indigenous livery.
The Yatala-based team welcomes Dabble, Australian social-first sports betting app, onboard for the annual trip up north this weekend.
Dabble boasts some of the fastest withdrawal times of any sports betting app (averaging 8.47 seconds) so it only makes sense to partner with one of the fastest Supercars on the grid.
It also coincides with the release of the Car #4 Indigenous livery, featuring a striking electric purple design.
Adorning the Dabble colours on Hill’s car sees a purple-coloured Supercar return to the grid for the first time in a number of years.
The artwork the livery is inspired from is named ‘Hands and Water’ by Billy-Jay O’Toole from Wadawurrung country in Geelong, Victoria.
It symbolises connection to land, with elements throughout the design showcasing different parts of Wadawurrung country.
The return to Hidden Valley Raceway this weekend has huge significance for MSR following the team’s maiden Supercars race win last year.
With strong qualifying form and a pair of Top 10 Shootout appearances already season, Hill is looking to keep the momentum up in Darwin.
The Darwin Indigenous Round begins with practice on Friday.
QUOTEBOARD
Cameron Hill – Driver of #4:
“Awesome to have Dabble onboard for the Darwin round of the Supercars championship. The car looks incredible and I think purple is my colour! It has been a while since we have seen a purple Supercar on the grid; it’s always good to have something a little bit different – sometimes liveries tend to follow similar trends but to have a livery as striking as Dabble’s purple is really cool. Hopefully we can get the Dabble Chevrolet Camaro up the front.”
