McLaughlin signs new deal with DJR

Supercars champion Scott McLaughlin has put an end to speculation over his future, committing to the 2020 season with DJR Team Penske.

Pitlane rumours were growing McLaughlin was contemplating a move to race in the United States but the New Zealander and teammate Fabian Coulthard have both signed new deals to stay with the Ford outfit next year.

It will be the fourth straight season the pair have raced together for DJR Team Penske.

McLaughlin joined DJR Team Penske from Garry Rogers Motorsport in 2017 and has won 29 races and 40 poles since then.

He backed up his 2017 runners-up finish in the championship to win a maiden title in 2018.
