Reigning Supercars champion Scott McLaughlin says he is not feeling any pressure ahead of his title defence but reckons his rivals will be at this weekend's season opener in Adelaide.
McLaughlin admitted the 2019 form guide would not be clear until after opening qualifying on the tough street circuit due to the new-look grid and this season's technical tweaks.
Arguably the biggest change is Ford's shift from Falcons to Mustangs - the first time since 1990 they've been sighted on the grid.
But Ford gun McLaughlin still plans to pick up where he left off in 2018 at the opening Adelaide 500.
