Aaron Zerefos locked in for BMW Bathurst 6 Hour return

·

Versatile racer Aaron Zerefos has confirmed his return to the Hi-Tec Oils Bathurst 6 Hour, driving for DNA Autosport in the Milk Lab 105 BMW 135i alongside Rob Bryden.

The #105 BMW will compete in Class B1, for high-performance forced induction vehicles.

“It’s going to be a big weekend with 70 cars on the grid,” Zerefos said.

“We recently had a productive test – all I wanted to do was get a few laps, get a feel for the car, so I could adapt my driving style to get the most out of the Milk Lab 105 BMW.

“I know what my role is within the team and that’s to be a solid co-driver, fit in and adapt to the team, deliver in my stints and not make mistakes.”

Zerefos has been entrusted with qualifying duties on Saturday and is also expected to bring the car home during the race’s final stint.

“He is very methodical with his racing; he gets the job done with a limited amount of fuss,” a DNA Autosport team representative said.

“I think he will surprise a few people this year; he’s fit and he’s fast, I think his biggest thing is his work ethic, not just behind the wheel, but when he’s outside the car.”

The 2026 Bathurst 6 Hour will be broadcast live on SBS, Fox Sports and Kayo.
