The young kiwi will be out for his third Supercar title in as many years this season and would be a brave person who bets against him.
Jamie Whincup sits second in the championship, the only driver who has consistently troubled McLaughlin and can still do so going deeper into the championship. He has won the Supercars title three times and is one of the most experienced drivers on the grid at 37 years old.
