A switch to the blue of Ford Performance Racing seemed to agree last year with Will Davison as he reminded the V8 Supercar community that his miserable 2010 season with the Holden Racing Team was a blip on the radar.

The third-generation racer looked to be getting back to the sort of form he had in his first year with HRT in 2009, when he finished second in the championship, won both the Phillip Island and Bathurst enduros with Garth Tander and won the Barry Sheene Medal.

But initially, Davison had the dream of racing Formula 1. After starting in karts and winning the Australian Formula Ford crown in 2001, he ventured overseas and raced in both the British

Formula Renault and Formula 3 Championships, going all the way to test a Minardi F1 car in Italy in late 2004.

Racing against the likes of Lewis Hamilton and other future Formula 1 stars only increased his hunger to make it in the top form of the sport, but finances dictated otherwise.

With his budget dried up mid-2004, Davison returned to Australia and linked up initially with Team Dynamik in the V8 Supercars Championship before moving to Dick Johnson’s team in 2005 as an endurance driver.

He replaced Glenn Seton in the team full-time for 2006 and helped take the Jim Beam-backed team back towards the front of the grid.

In 2008 he broke through for his maiden V8 Supercar victory at Eastern Creek and pushed his way to a top five finish in the championship.

Last year he finished seventh in the championship in his first year with FPR and again he will drive the same #6 Tradingpost Falcon he drove in the second half of 2011.

Davison scored podium finishes and pole positions for his new team last season but from the start of 2012 is looking for his first race win with the Prodrive-owned team.
