Rodin Motorsport announced in December their intention to enter the 2026 British GT Championship, but at the time were still waiting to confirm their driver line-up. Today the team has confirmed Australians Josh Buchan and Cameron Campbell are set to spearhead the team’s GT3 debut in a Ferrari 296 GT3 Evo.

The Silver-Am pairing will mark Rodin’s maiden campaign in top-level GT competition. The move into GT racing signals a significant expansion beyond Rodin’s established single-seater programme. Their arrival adds further international flavour to the British GT grid as the New Zealand-owned outfit takes its first steps into closed-wheel racing in Europe.

Buchan arrives with a strong touring car pedigree, having established himself as one of Australia’s leading tin-top racers. After debuting in TCR machinery in 2021, he secured consecutive TCR Australia Touring Car Series titles in 2023 and 2024, before adding further silverware in the TCR Australia Cup the following season. His résumé also includes victory in the prestigious Macau Guia Race, underlining his credentials on the international stage.

Alongside his touring car success, Buchan has begun to build experience in GT racing. A Pro-Am campaign in Australian GT4 machinery yielded a fourth-place championship finish, while a class win at the Bathurst 12 Hour in 2025 further highlighted his adaptability across endurance formats.

Campbell, meanwhile, steps up to GT3 competition after an encouraging start to his career in one-make racing. He impressed in the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli Australasia, securing multiple podium finishes on his way to third overall in the standings. His rapid progression has now earned him a full-season opportunity on one of Europe’s most competitive GT stages.

The pairing already brings valuable experience in the Ferrari 296 GT3, having shared driving duties at the GT World Challenge Australia season finale, where they secured two top-ten results. Their 2026 campaign began strongly at Phillip Island, highlighted by a fifth-place finish in yesterday’s second race aboard the #23 Zagame Autosport entry. That programme will run alongside their British GT commitments, with both drivers continuing as part of the Zagame Autosport line-up under team principal Rod Wilson. Running parallel campaigns is expected to fast-track their development, with both teams collaborating closely and sharing data and setup insights across hemispheres.

Speaking on the announcement, Buchan described the opportunity as a milestone moment in his career “This is the stuff you pinch yourself over, being able to compete with one of the biggest teams in European motorsport in general, let alone it being their first foray into GT cars,” said Buchan. “My relationship with Rodin Cars goes back a few years now, it’s a brand I’m hugely passionate about and have built a real bond with the crew in New Zealand and I can’t wait to extend that into the UK and continue my international racing journey.”

Campbell echoed that sentiment, emphasising the value of combining British GT with a full GT World Challenge Australia campaign to maximise both driver and team learning.

“To be joining Rodin’s first official programme in GT cars is hugely exciting and builds on our already existing relationship off track,” he said. “Adding this to our existing GT World Challenge Australia races also in the 296 GT3 means we are essentially doubling ours and the team’s learning process and will give us an excellent base to go and achieve some strong results.”

Rodin Cars and Rodin Motorsport managing director Emma Duncan believes the pairing is well-suited to the challenge ahead, pointing to their existing ties with the organisation and their potential to form a competitive package from the outset.

“Josh and Cameron are a strong combination and a great fit for Rodin Motorsport, with both drivers already having an established relationship with Rodin Cars, New Zealand. I believe they are a winning duo and will bring a highly competitive team to the British GT grid.”

With a proven GT3 platform in the Ferrari 296 GT3 Evo and a driver pairing already building chemistry, Rodin Motorsport’s British GT debut shapes as one of the more intriguing new entries ahead of the 2026 season.
