Wayne Taylor Racing (WTR) has announced its lineup for the upcoming Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America season, featuring a mix of seasoned champions and promising newcomers. The team's roster includes multiple class winners and international competitors, all set to compete in four Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO2 cars. Notable additions include Swedish driver Hampus Ericsson and reigning Am class champion Anthony McIntosh, who will now compete in the Pro-Am category. Veteran drivers Danny Formal and Nick Persing return, with Formal continuing his dual commitments in both Super Trofeo and IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.

The team's commitment to excellence is evident through its strategic driver pairings and the impressive track record of its members. Ericsson, a newcomer to North American racing, brings fresh talent after winning the World Finals in Europe. Meanwhile, McIntosh and Brendon Leitch aim to build on their success from the previous year. Glenn McGee and Graham Doyle will join forces in the Am class, bringing together experience and emerging talent. The season kicks off at Sebring International Raceway next month, setting the stage for an exhilarating competition.

New Talent Meets Experience in Pro Class

The Pro class sees a dynamic pairing of experienced racer Danny Formal and Swedish newcomer Hampus Ericsson. Formal, a two-time Pro series champion, will share the No. 1 Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO2 with Ericsson, marking a significant shift from his previous partnership with Ryan Norman. Formal's versatility is highlighted by his concurrent participation in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. This dual commitment showcases his adaptability and dedication to both series.

Ericsson's addition to WTR marks his debut in North American racing, following a successful stint in Super Trofeo Europe where he clinched victory in the World Finals. His transition to the North American circuit represents a new chapter in his career, joining one of the most prestigious teams in the championship. Ericsson expressed his excitement about the opportunity, emphasizing the honor of representing WTR and continuing his journey with Lamborghini Squadra Corse. The combination of Formal's proven track record and Ericsson's fresh perspective promises to be a formidable force in the Pro class.

Strategic Pairings in Pro-Am and Am Classes

The Pro-Am and Am classes introduce strategic pairings designed to leverage experience and emerging talent. Reigning Super Trofeo North America Am class champion Anthony McIntosh steps up to the Pro-Am class alongside Brendon Leitch. McIntosh's impressive seven wins out of twelve races last year, coupled with Leitch's recent success in Super Trofeo Europe, create a powerhouse duo aiming for the Pro-Am title. Their collaboration builds on the momentum from their Pro-Am World Final championship last year.

In the Am class, Glenn McGee and Graham Doyle form a new partnership, combining McGee's two-time class championship experience with Doyle's growing prowess. Doyle, entering his third season with WTR, also serves as the team's third driver in the GTD class entry. Both drivers highlighted the excitement of working together and the support of WTR, which they believe will make them a tough competitor in 2025. The season opener at Sebring International Raceway sets the stage for these strategic pairings to showcase their skills and compete for top honors.
