Cameron Christopher Waters (born 3 August 1994) is an Australian professional racing driver who competes full-time in the Repco Supercars Championship for Tickford Racing, driving the No. 6 Monster EnergyFord Mustang GT.[1] A former AustralianFormula Ford Champion in 2011 and Dunlop Super2 Series Champion in 2015, Waters has established himself as one of the series' top talents with 17 race wins, 29 pole positions, and two runner-up finishes in the drivers' championship (2020 and 2022).[2][3] He is also a three-time podium finisher at the prestigious Bathurst 1000, achieving third place consecutively from 2020 to 2022.[3]Waters began his racing career in karting in 2001 before advancing to open-wheel series, winning the Australian Formula Ford Championship at age 16 in 2011.[1] His breakthrough into Supercars came through the inaugural Shannons Supercar Showdown reality TV series in 2011, which he won at 17, earning a co-driving role with Grant Denyer in the 2011 Bathurst 1000 and marking him as one of the youngest competitors in the event's history.[4] He debuted in the Supercars support categories in 2012 with a part-season in the Dunlop Series, before securing the full 2015 title with what is now Tickford Racing.[3] Transitioning to the main Supercars Championship in 2016 with Kelly Racing, Waters moved to Tickford Racing in 2019, where he has since become a consistent championship contender with multiple wins and podiums.[5]In 2025, Waters started the season strongly by claiming pole positions and victories in the opening round at the Thrifty Sydney 500, including a dramatic win in Race 2 by just 0.03 seconds over Broc Feeney.[6][7] His campaign included a high-profile incident at the Bathurst 1000, where he and co-driver Mark Winterbottom were leading before a collision with the wall ended their victory chances.[8] Later, at the Sandown 500, Waters was involved in a controversial clash with Matt Payne, resulting in a five-second penalty that eliminated him from title contention, finishing the season 6th in the drivers' championship as of November 2025.[9][10] Beyond Supercars, Waters expanded internationally with a NASCAR debut in 2024 and a fifth-place finish in the Truck Series at Lime Rock Park in June 2025, expressing interest in further U.S. racing opportunities.[11]
Early life
Childhood and family background
Cameron Christopher Waters was born on 3 August 1994 in Mildura, a regional town in northwestern Victoria, Australia, situated along the Murray River in a predominantly agricultural area.[3][12]Waters grew up immersed in the local motorsport scene, largely influenced by his father, Chris Waters, who was an active speedway racer competing regularly at Timmis Speedway in Mildura.[13][14][15] He has a brother, Jarod Waters, who also competes in speedway racing, continuing the family's involvement in the sport.[16] Chris Waters also established the Enzed Service Centre in Mildura in 1988, a business specializing in hydraulic hose repairs and automotive fittings with 24-hour emergency services, which exposed the family to vehicles and mechanical work from an early age.[17]In this rural community with ties to farming and limited specialized racing facilities beyond the local speedway, Waters benefited from strong family support that nurtured his early hobbies and interest in motorsport.[18] This environment laid the foundation for his later pursuits, marking a natural progression from childhood fascinations with speed and machinery.[13]
Introduction to motorsport
Cam Waters first entered the realm of competitive motorsport in 2001 at the age of seven, beginning with go-kart racing in local club events across Victoria. Hailing from Mildura in northern Victoria, he was immersed in a regional racing environment that sparked his initial passion, with his family's supportive background—particularly his father Chris Waters' involvement in speedway—providing early encouragement to explore the sport.[19][14][20]These formative local races on tracks near Mildura allowed Waters to develop fundamental skills in handling and racing etiquette, competing against peers in junior categories that emphasized close-quarters battling and track awareness. Early successes, including regional wins and junior karting titles, bolstered his confidence and demonstrated his natural aptitude for speed and strategy from a young age.[14][20]Influenced by the vibrant Mildura motorsport community and guidance from local figures familiar with karting circuits, Waters made the commitment to pursue racing as a serious endeavor around the age of 10 to 12. This period marked a shift from casual participation to dedicated training and competition, establishing the foundational discipline that propelled him toward higher levels of the sport.[14][20]
Professional racing career
Karting and junior formulas
Waters began his karting career in 2001 at the age of seven, progressing to national competition by 2005. He achieved success in junior classes, winning multiple Victorian state karting championships and securing the prestigious J.C. Maddox Trophy—awarded to the top cadet karter of the year by Karting Victoria—in both 2006 and 2007.[3][21] These accomplishments highlighted his early talent in handling high-speed machinery and laid the groundwork for his transition to single-seater racing. Waters continued competing in the Australian Kart Championship through 2010, focusing on classes like Junior National Light, where he built experience in sprint and endurance formats.[22]In 2009, Waters made his debut in open-wheel racing by entering the Victorian Formula Vee Series, driving a Jacer F2K5 chassis and finishing seventh overall in a field of experienced competitors.[22] This step introduced him to car-based racing dynamics, including gear shifting and suspension setup, while competing on circuits like Phillip Island and Sandown. The following year, he transitioned to Formula Ford, contesting both the Victorian and national series. In the Australian Formula Ford Championship, Waters finished sixth overall with three podium finishes, earning Rookie of the Year honors as the top newcomer.[3][22] He also claimed the Victorian Formula Ford title, demonstrating adaptability to the Ford Duratec-powered Mygalechassis.[23][19]Waters' progression accelerated in 2011 when he dominated the Australian Formula Ford Championship, securing the national title with seven race victories across the season.[20] Key highlights included his maiden round win at Eastern Creek, where he held off teammate Nick Foster despite a late challenge, and a consistent performance at Phillip Island that clinched his third round victory without taking individual race wins that weekend.[24][25] These results, achieved at age 17, solidified his single-seater skills and paved the way for opportunities in higher-level development series.[23]
Breakthrough in development series
Waters' breakthrough in Supercars development categories began with his victory in the 2011 Shannons Supercar Showdown, a reality television competition that offered the winner a wildcard entry to the Bathurst 1000.[4] At just 17 years and two months old, Waters became the youngest driver ever to start the prestigious endurance race, partnering with Grant Denyer in a Kelly Racing-prepared Holden VE Commodore and finishing 20th overall despite a high-speed spin on debut.[26] This achievement, building on his prior success in junior formulas like the Australian Formula Ford Championship, marked his rapid transition from karting and single-seaters to V8 machinery.[27]Following the Bathurst wildcard, Waters entered the V8 Supercars Development Series (later rebranded as the Dunlop Series) in 2012 with a partial-season drive for Brad Jones Racing in a HoldenVECommodore, finishing 24th in the standings as he adapted to the category's demands.[28] His results improved progressively in 2013 with Minda Motorsport, where he drove a similar VECommodore to 10th place overall without securing a win or podium but gaining valuable experience in a competitive field.[29] By 2014, now with Ford Performance Racing in a Ford FG Falcon, Waters achieved a breakthrough runner-up finish in the championship, highlighted by two race victories at Winton and Sydney Olympic Park, which propelled him toward a full-time opportunity.[30][31]Waters' development culminated in the 2015 Dunlop Series, where he dominated for Prodrive Racing Australia in a Ford FG Falcon, clinching the championship with 1966 points—a 77-point margin over Paul Dumbrell—after a season of consistent excellence that included multiple race wins and a clean sweep at the Winton round.[32][33] This title victory, his first major series championship, directly secured his promotion to the Supercars Championship main grid as a full-time driver with Prodrive the following year, establishing him as a rising talent in Australian touring car racing.[1]
Supercars Championship tenure
Cam Waters made his full-time debut in the Supercars Championship in 2016 with Prodrive Racing Australia, driving the No. 6 Monster Energy-sponsored Ford FG X Falcon after winning the 2015 Dunlop Series for the team.[20][34] He showed promise in his rookie season, finishing 18th overall with consistent top-10 results in several events, though the team struggled with reliability issues.[35]Waters secured his first Supercars victory in 2017 at the Sandown 500, partnering with Richie Stanaway in a historic endurance win for the young duo, marking Prodrive's (rebranded as Tickford Racing in 2018) first success of the year.[36][37] He ended the season 14th in the drivers' standings, building momentum with additional podiums and demonstrating adaptability in the Ford Mustang GT introduced in 2019.[38]Remaining loyal to Tickford Racing throughout his career, Waters has driven the No. 6 entry exclusively, signing contract extensions including a multi-year deal in 2025 to continue with the team.[39] His tenure includes strong title contention, such as a runner-up finish in 2022 with three race wins and 10 pole positions, showcasing his qualifying prowess and consistency across diverse circuits.[5]In 2023, despite reliability setbacks, Waters notched three victories, including a dramatic Gold Coast win defending against Shane van Gisbergen, and finished sixth in the championship with 2099 points.[40][41] The following year, he rebounded to fourth place overall with 2551 points and four wins, highlighted by a dominant performance at the Tasmania SuperSprint.[42][43]Entering 2025, Waters pursued his first drivers' title aggressively, starting with a hat-trick of poles and two race wins at the Thrifty Sydney 500 opener, leading the early standings and signaling Tickford's improved form. Later in the season, he reached his 300th career start at the Ipswich Super440, a milestone celebrated with a special No. 300 livery on his Mustang. Waters continued his strong performance with a third victory at the Gold Coast 500 in October. He entered the finals series in contention for the title but was eliminated after a collision with Matt Payne at the Sandown 500, ultimately finishing sixth in the drivers' championship with 4166 points and 18 career victories to date.[44][45][46][47][48][49][10]
NASCAR and international ventures
In 2024, Cam Waters expanded his racing portfolio into NASCAR, debuting in the Craftsman Truck Series with ThorSport Racing. His first start came on April 5 at Martinsville Speedway in the No. 66 Ford F-150, marking a significant step outside his primary Supercars commitments.[50] This appearance was followed by a second Truck Series outing at Kansas Speedway later that year, where he achieved his best result of 19th place, demonstrating adaptability to oval racing despite the challenges of limited preparation time.[51]Waters' international ambitions peaked with his NASCAR Cup Series debut on June 9, 2024, at Sonoma Raceway, driving the No. 60 Ford Mustang Dark Horse for RFK Racing under their Stage 60 program.[52] Qualifying 31st in a 38-car field, Waters showed early promise on the road course but was sidelined by suspension damage from a multi-car incident at Turn 11, resulting in a classified 35th-place finish.[53] Despite the setback, he described the experience as "sensational," highlighting the Cup car's similarities to his Supercars machinery and fueling interest in further U.S. opportunities.[54]Building on this momentum, Waters returned to the Craftsman Truck Series in 2025, contesting a partial schedule with ThorSport Racing. His sole appearance that year was the inaugural Truck race at Lime Rock Park on June 28, where he started from the 12th-fastest practice position and navigated late-race chaos to secure a career-best fifth-place finish.[55] This result contributed to his season-end standing of 47th in the points, with 32 points earned from the single start, underscoring his growing comfort in NASCAR's truck division.[56] While no additional international guest starts, such as in endurance events, were confirmed for 2024 or 2025, Waters' Supercars success provided the platform for these selective U.S. ventures, enhancing his reputation as a versatile driver open to global challenges.[57]
Speedway racing pursuits
Cam Waters entered the world of speedway racing in the late 2010s, initially competing in modified sedans as a way to hone his driving skills outside of circuit racing. In 2018, he achieved a significant milestone by winning the Speedway Sedans Australia National Modified Sedan Title at Horsham's Blue Ribbon Raceway, marking his most notable success in dirt track competition at the time. Balancing these pursuits with his burgeoning Supercars career, Waters used speedway as an off-season outlet to maintain sharpness, participating sporadically to avoid conflicts with his primary commitments.[13][58]Transitioning to sprintcar racing in early 2021, Waters made his debut at Timmis Speedway in Mildura, where he encountered initial challenges but quickly adapted to the high-powered, dirt-oval format. Teaming up with Chief Racing, he competed in the V6 sprintcar, focusing on regional events during the Australian summer to complement his circuit schedule. A key highlight came in January 2025 at the Borderline Speedway's Mt Gambier Kings Challenge, where Waters nominated and raced in the prestigious event, navigating a competitive 60-car field on the challenging clay surface.[59][22][60]Waters has secured several regional sprintcar achievements, including his first A-Main final appearance in March 2021 and a maiden podium finish in December 2023 at a Victorian meeting, where he advanced from sixth to second in a heat. In the 2025 Grand Annual Sprintcar Classic at Premier Speedway, he won his first heat, demonstrating growing proficiency in the discipline. These successes underscore his adaptability, with the demands of speedway—such as managing rear-wheel drive on loose dirt—enhancing his car control and confidence in Supercars, particularly in wet or low-grip conditions. His Supercars background, in turn, provides a foundation of precision that aids his oval-line execution in sprintcars.[61][62][63][64]
Achievements and records
Major championships and wins
Cam Waters achieved early success in karting by winning the J.C. Maddox Karting Trophy, awarded to Victoria's top Cadet 12 driver, in both 2006 and 2007.[21]Transitioning to circuit racing, Waters captured the 2011 Australian Formula Ford Championship with seven race victories, securing the title with a round to spare after a consistent sixth-place finish in the penultimate race at Queensland Raceway.[65][20] In the same year, he won the inaugural Shannons Supercar Showdown, a reality television competition that earned him a co-driving role in the 2011 Bathurst 1000 alongside Grant Denyer.[4][26]Waters' breakthrough in development categories came with the 2015 Dunlop Series (now Super2) championship, where he clinched the title in the final round at Sydney Olympic Park, defeating defending champion Paul Dumbrell by 77 points after 11 race wins throughout the season.[32][38]In the Supercars Championship, Waters has recorded 18 race victories as of 2025, establishing him as one of the series' leading Ford drivers. His maiden Supercars win arrived in 2017 at the Sandown 500 endurance race, shared with co-driver Richie Stanaway for Prodrive Racing Australia.[38][37] Standout sprint race triumphs include a victory in the chaotic second race of the 2022 Darwin Triple Crown at Hidden Valley Raceway, where he navigated multiple incidents to claim his third win of that season.[66]Beyond circuit racing, Waters has pursued speedway disciplines, securing wins in sprintcar events such as a commanding Heat 1 victory at a 2025 Australian Sprintcar Open meeting via a last-corner pass.[67]
Bathurst and endurance highlights
Cam Waters made history in the 2011 Bathurst 1000 by becoming the youngest driver ever to start the race at just 17 years old, securing the co-drive with Grant Denyer for the Kelly Racing Holden after winning a reality TV competition.[26] His rookie outing was eventful, featuring a high-speed spin at The Dipper that tested his composure, though he ultimately finished 20th after avoiding major damage in the demanding conditions of Mount Panorama.[68] This early exposure during his Supercars tenure laid the foundation for his growth in endurance racing, where patience and adaptability became hallmarks of his approach.Waters elevated his Bathurst performances in the early 2020s, achieving three consecutive podium finishes from 2020 to 2022—a run that underscored his mastery of the 1000-kilometer classic. In 2020, partnering with Will Davison for Tickford Racing, he claimed pole position with a lap record of 2:03.5592 before finishing second to Shane van Gisbergen and Garth Tander, benefiting from a conservative fuel strategy that minimized pit stops in dry conditions.[69] The following year, Waters teamed with James Moffat and again secured second place, trailing Chaz Mostert and Lee Holdsworth in a race decided by late-race drama, where their synchronized stints kept the Monster Energy Ford Mustang competitive despite tire wear challenges.[70] In 2022, the duo with Moffat adapted to persistent rain, with Waters setting a wet qualifying benchmark of 2:23.6168 for pole before crossing the line third behind van Gisbergen/Tander and Mostert/Fabian Coulthard, their wet-weather tire calls proving pivotal in navigating the slippery track.[71]The enduring partnership with Moffat, spanning multiple Bathurst campaigns since 2021, has highlighted Waters' strategic acumen in mixed conditions, including precise handover timing and risk assessment during safety car periods to maintain position. Beyond Bathurst, Waters has excelled in other Supercars endurance events, notably winning the 2017 Sandown 500—his first career victory—with Richie Stanaway for Prodrive Racing Australia, converting pole into a dominant performance over 500 kilometers.[72] He later added a runner-up finish at Sandown in 2024 alongside Thomas Randle, further cementing his reputation in team-based long-distance races.[73]Waters has also ventured into GT endurance racing with appearances in the Bathurst 12 Hour, including a 12th overall finish in 2014 co-driving a BMW for Grange Motorsport alongside Jack Perkins and a strong showing in 2025 practices for Scott Taylor Motorsport's Mercedes-AMG GT3, where he topped multiple sessions before the team's final classification.[74][75] These outings demonstrate his versatility across formats, blending Supercars endurance expertise with international GT challenges.
Statistical milestones
Cam Waters has recorded significant statistical achievements throughout his Supercars Championship career, highlighting his consistency and speed in one of Australia's premier motorsport series. As of November 2025, he has amassed 18 race victories, 63 podium finishes, and 31 pole positions over 304 starts, demonstrating a strong podium conversion rate and qualifying prowess.[38] These figures include runner-up finishes in the drivers' championship in 2020 and 2022, where he fell short of Scott McLaughlin and Shane van Gisbergen, respectively.[76]Among his standout records, Waters remains the youngest driver ever to start the Bathurst 1000, entering the endurance classic at just 17 years and 2 months old in 2011 after winning the Shannons Supercars Showdown.[77] He also holds the distinction of securing the most pole positions for a Tickford Racing driver, surpassing team predecessors like Mark Winterbottom with his 31 qualifiers.[78]Comparatively, Waters' career stats position him as a top-tier contender but behind all-time greats such as Shane van Gisbergen, who leads with 49 Supercars wins and three championships to Waters' zero titles as of 2025.[79] This places Waters among the series' elite in qualifying (fourth all-time in poles among active drivers) while underscoring his potential for further milestones in race victories and championships.[76]
