Kelly Racing confirms Ford Mustang move

Simona De Silvestro's Supercars career is up in the air after Kelly Racing announced a scale back and manufacturer switch for the 2020 season.

Team boss Todd Kelly confirmed on Tuesday the four-car Nissan set-up in this year's Supercars campaign would become a two-car team fielding Ford Mustangs.

The drivers are expected to be Rick Kelly and Andre Heimgartner.

The shift ends the six-year Supercars Nissan era for Kelly Racing, although it will continue to run two Altima Supercars in the second-tier Super2 Series from 2020.

The deal will see the Mustang contingent grow from six to eight next season.
