David Brabham got behind the wheel of the 1992 Brabham BT60B Judd at the 2025 Repco Adelaide Motorsport Festival, the last Brabham grand prix car.


The BT60B never made it to the season-ending Australian Grand Prix in Adelaide in 1992, with the team folding after that year's Hungarian Grand Prix. It marked the end of 30 years of construction of purpose-built open-wheel race cars for the team founded by Jack Brabham and Ron Tauranac.


David Brabham, son of Jack Brabham, raced for the team founded by his father in the 1990 Formula 1 season. In addition to driving the Brabham BT59 Judd that he raced in 1990, Brabham also drove the BT60B across the Formula 1 sessions at the 2025 Repco Adelaide Motorsport Festival. He shared the BT60B with Formula 1 world champion Damon Hill, who raced the car in 1992.


Brabham was one of two Australians to race in the grand prix in Adelaide, alongside Alan Jones. The BT60B was designed by renowned engineer Sergio Rinland and is powered by a Judd V10 engine, with the car featuring a distinctive pink and blue livery.
