Boost Mobile and MobileX founder Peter Adderton has announced the withdrawal of his brands from motorsport at the soonest opportunity in the wake of Brodie Kostecki’s decision to cut ties.
Supercars champion Kostecki has been absent from the grid so far this season, but announced on Monday that he will return to action with Erebus in Taupo. This comes after months of allegations of bullying within the team, something that Adderton, a long-time sponsor through Boost Mobile, had publicly called out while also criticising both the team and championship for their handling of the situation.
Writing on social media, Adderton said: “Ok, for those who say I have threatened to pull out of the sport might consider we have not sponsored a team for over two years now and yes, we have been asked too. “We are in the last year of our multi-year contract with Supercars and we have not added any more young drivers to our ambassador program so we are leaving as fast as we legally can.
