Fresh from successfully completing the 2024 Elite Motorsport Academy week in Dunedin, Auckland’s Hunter Robb is heading to Australia to test a Porsche Michelin Sprint Championship car as he prepares for the next step in his career.

“The Elite Motorsport Academy was a great experience,” commented Robb. “ It was all about becoming a more complete driver with focus on off-track stuff such as nutrition, media, sponsorship and fitness.  I’m definitely going to make changes and have already started to do this with my diet.  Certainly, I’m looking forward to applying a lot of what I learnt into a race weekend.”

The 17-year-old will test with Jones Motorsport at the Queensland Raceway this Wednesday under the guidance of Harri Jones, the current leader of the Porsche Paynter Dixon Carrera Cup Australia series.

“I’m really looking forward to it,” said Robb.  “I just want to learn and gain knowledge from the Australians and get a judgement of where my speed is at.”
