The Greater Shepparton product has signed with Team Sydney for the upcoming campaign, making the switch from Matt Stone Racing.
He joins Fabian Coulthard as the main drivers on the team in a completely fresh pairing for the Holden squad in its second season, which is managed by Jonathon Webb.
“Going head to head with Team Sydney last year I was really impressed that a newly created team could improve so quickly and achieve continually better results from round to round,” Jacobson told his new squad's media team.
“I had always followed Jonathon’s career and admired his success, not only on the track, but as a team owner playing a key role in the careers of our current top driving talent.
“With Fabian also on board, this was the ideal time to gain some valuable experience with some successful, seasoned campaigners.
“I’d like to thank the entire team for having me on board and being so accommodating.
“It will be exciting calling Sydney Motorsport Park home and I look forward to representing the city and achieving some of the goals I have already set myself which is to improve my preparation, fitness and technical understanding of the cars.
“By doing all of these things I am positive consistency and results will follow.”
Jacobson's new home track was the scene of his best finish last year — a seventh placing.
“Garry is an ideal fit for the Team Sydney family,” Webb said.
“He is young, determined and absolutely committed to progressing his motorsport career alongside Fabian and our crew.
“We have been impressed by Garry’s past performance and the character he demonstrates on track.
“Our crew are excited to kick off at Bathurst and look forward to sharing naming rights partner announcements for the Team Sydney Supercar #22 soon.”
The opening round of the 2021 Supercars season is scheduled to begin on February 26.
