Caruso looks for enduro Supercars drive

Just weeks ahead of the 2019 Supercars opening round, Michael Caruso is searching for a full-time drive after being cut by Nissan's Kelly Racing.

The former Bathurst 1000 podium winner may have to settle for a co-driver gig for this year's three enduro rounds after Kelly Racing jettisoned the popular 35-year-old from their four-car squad.

Andre Heimgartner and Garry Jacobson are in the mix to secure the two remaining seats at Kelly Racing for 2019 alongside Rick Kelly and Simona de Silvestro after ditching Caruso, who had been with the team since 2013.

The brutal dumping of Caruso ahead of the opening round in Adelaide from February 28 earned sympathy from fellow driver Lee Holdsworth.
