With more than three decades experience in Sport broadcasting, White has hosted and commentated the biggest motorsport events in the world, including the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix, Moto GP, Indy Car and Supercars.
He was an integral part of Network Ten and Seven’s motorsports broadcasts as both host and commentator, including the award-winning Supercars coverage.
White has also hosted and commentated on the Summer and Winter Olympic Games, Paralympics, The Australian Tennis Open, Melbourne Cup Carnival, and a range of Sport, News and Public Affairs programs.
White will be joined by one of Australia’s leading and most accomplished motorsport identities Molly Taylor along with Chris Stubbs, Greg Rust, Richard Craill, Matt Naulty and TCR Australia driver Michael Caruso will also feature at the season opener at Race Tasmania.
Stubbs will act as co-host and lead reporter, offering his years of motorsport experience, delivered in his professional news tone, while Rust is set to share his time between the commentary box and pit lane.
AWC Race Tasmania, the opening round of the 2022 ARG Speed Series, will be held from 11 to 13 February.
The Speed Series will be available to stream ad-free, live and on demand on Stan Sport, with live coverage also on the Nine Network.
Stan Sport will cover the action from 1300-1700 on both Saturday and Sunday (February 12-13), delivering all qualifying sessions and races from the Supercheap Auto TCR Australia Series, S5000 Australian Drivers Championship and the Turtle Wax Trans Am Series.
For AWC Race Tasmania, the first major national-level motorsport event for the calendar year, coverage will be simulcast on the Nine Network’s GEM channel. Saturday will feature live and free motorsport at 1500-1700, with more racing on Sunday between 1300-1500.
International race fans, including New Zealand residents, will be able to watch the coverage on Motorsport.tv.
Due to border restrictions, New Zealand resident Rust will be forced to miss the Race Tasmania opener at Symmons Plains Raceway, but plans to be back behind the microphone from Phillip Island onwards.
Race driver Michael Caruso will return to duties behind the microphone, adding his witty colour in front of the camera to his super skilled talents behind the wheel in the TCR Australia Series.
And fresh from winning the inaugural Extreme E Championship abroad and being the first-ever Australian woman to drive Dakar, Molly Taylor returns for her second year with the ARG commentary crew.
Executive producer Andrew Janson will lead the broadcast, with significant support of the Supercars Media team who will oversee the facilitation and technical side of the production.
