TPC Racing Brings Six Cars to IMSA Single-Make Finales at Sebring

Two Lamborghini Super Trofeos Upgrade to Am Class, Four Porsches Entered in Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge USA For This Week’s Event

SEBRING, Florida (November 11, 2020) – TPC Racing is bringing six cars to Sebring as part of IMSA’s season finale that includes the single-make Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge USA by Yokohama and the Lamborghini Super Trofeo championship.

Sebring’s unique schedule means that this event features a “race week” rather than a traditional race weekend. Both championships will qualify on Thursday, November 12 and race a pair of races on Friday, November 13. Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge will run a pair of 45-minute races on Friday, at 8 a.m. EST and at 2:35 p.m. EST. Lamborghini Super Trofeo runs duel 50-minute races on Friday, at 9:05 a.m. EST and 3:50 p.m. EST. All four races can be seen live at IMSA.tv.

TPC Racing’s Lamborghini Super Trofeo program continues to grow. Tom Kerr began the program in August, racing the No. 74 Lamborghini Sterling/GotVeins.com Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO in LB Cup by himself. He was joined in the last round by Scott Schmidt and Trevor Andrusko, who co-drove the No. 38 Lamborghini Sterling Lamborghini Super Trofeo EVO to a podium in LB Cup.

For Sebring, both cars move to the AM class. Schmidt and Andrusko will continue to co-drive, while Kerr picks up a co-driver in Moritz Kranz this weekend in the AM class. The 33-year-old German has been working with TPC Racing as a driver coach to Efrin Castro in the Porsche Cup, and driving in Michelin Le Mans Cup LMP 3 Championship and the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS) in 2020.

Castro, Dan Hardee, Vernon McClure and Charlie Craig will carry the TPC Racing banner in IMSA Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge USA.

While Castro has been locked in a battle for the first 14 races of the season for the Gold Cup Championship in the No. 65 Fine Fare Supermarkets/TPC Racing Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, championship rival Curt Swearingin will clinch the class title just by starting both races this week. Instead, Castro is focused solely on adding to his five wins during the 2020 season.

Like Castro, Hardee, McClure and Craig have been eliminated from championship contention in the Platinum Cup Masters class. McClure led twice at St. Petersburg and is hunting for his first career class win in the No. 10 Main Street Homes/TPC Racing Porsche 911 GT3 Cup. Hardee, a Vero Beach, Florida-native, is looking for a strong showing behind the wheel of the No. 69 VBar Vero Beach/Hardee Family Foundation/Michelin Wiper Blades Porsche 911 GT3 Cup at his home track.

The event week begins on Wednesday afternoon at the 17-turn, 3.74-mile circuit. The Lamborghini Super Trofeo field opens with a 40-minute practice at 3:55 p.m. EST, with Porsche GT3 Cup following with a 40-minute practice of their own at 4:50 p.m. EST. Porsche GT3 Cup practices at 8:00 a.m. EST on Thursday, and qualifies at 12:45 p.m. Lamborghini Super Trofeo practices at 11:25 a.m. EST and qualifies at 4:10 p.m. the same day. Friday’s races begin at 8 a.m. and 2:35 p.m. (Porsche GT3 Cup) and 9:05 a.m. and 3:40 p.m. (Lamborghini Super Trofeo).

Harris Levitas, Director of Race Operations: “This is going to be a really busy weekend for the TPC Racing guys, but also a really great weekend for our program. In Lamborghini Super Trofeo, our Lamborghini Sterling Lamborghini Super Trofeo EVOs are going to push harder than ever. Scott and Trevor have a weekend and a podium under their belts, and with Moritz joining Tom, a second great pairing even moving to the AM class. Efrin is just running for wins in Porsche Cup, and we think Vernon has a chance to do the same in Masters Platinum. Dan has had Sebring marked on his calendar all year and he loves this track. In all, we’re looking forward to a great event here at Sebring for TPC Racing.”

Tom Kerr, Driver, No. 74 Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO: “I’m super excited to be driving with Moritz. It gives me and the team an opportunity for a two-driver team during pit stops and adds another dimension to the race we haven’t experienced before. I’m most excited to be at my home track and have the privilege of driving an amazing Lamborghini Sterling car with this great team. It will be fun!”

Scott Schmidt, Driver, No. 38 Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO: “Sebring was the track we did our first Test N Tune in our American Endurance Racing Porsche GT3 with TPC Racing. I’m really excited to get back around Sebring. It’s hard on cars, it’s hard on the body. It’s fast and faster and harder. It’s by far one of the top, top courses in the world. You walk up there and see all the great names on the grandstand. It’s a top notch road course.”

Dan Hardee, Driver, No. 69 Porsche GT3 Cup: “I’m really looking forward to Sebring. It’s one of my favorite tracks, it’s close to my home in south Florida, and it’s close to the home of my sponsor VBar Live. I’ve run several events here with TPC Racing, and if everything goes well I think we can score one of our best finishes ever here this week.”

TWO-TIME SOUTH BOSTON SPEEDWAY CHAMPION JOHNNY LAYNE SEES SUCCESS CONTINUE

South Boston, VA….Johnny Layne temporarily put racing aside twice in his career. His success in racing returned both times.

“I’ve been racing for about 21 years,” the Nathalie, Virginia resident pointed out.

“I took one year off way back when. Last year (2019) I set aside my racing and helped my brother (Steven Layne). He started racing in the Hornets Division. I spotted for him, worked on his car a little bit, and tried to give him a little spotlight. I also spent a lot of time with my daughter. I put racing aside a little bit. It was hard.”

Layne says once racing gets into your blood it is hard to stay away from the sport.

“Racing is just a fun habit,” he explained.

“I can’t get away from it. One way or another I am going to be somewhere racing or helping somebody.”

Layne won the South Boston Speedway Budweiser Pure Stock Division championship in both 2016 and 2017 and fell just shy of making it three titles in a row in 2018. The 2018 season was the last season Layne raced at South Boston Speedway fulltime.

While he stepped away from the sport in 2019, he still enjoyed a large degree of success.

“I raced twice and won the Fourth of July race here at South Boston Speedway,” Layne noted with a smile.

“That was the only win I really hadn’t gotten since I started racing.”

Layne had looked at returning to the sport this season, but the COVID-19 pandemic put a damper on his plans, as it did with many others.

“I was hoping we were going to get to race here this year,” Layne remarked during a break in a recent testing session at South Boston Speedway, “but with everything being what it is we’ve raced only three times, all at Orange County Speedway.”

His effort was flawless. Layne won all three of his starts at the North Carolina oval, his most recent triumph coming on October 24.

One of the interesting aspects of Layne’s success is he is driving the same Nissan 240 racecar he has driven for several years.

“I’ve been racing the same car for six or seven years now,” Layne noted.

That may change.

“I have a new car I may debut next year,” Layne pointed out.

“It’s an older model. We decided we would try to build a car and see what it does. It hasn’t been on the track yet, but I think we found some things I can do to make the car handle better and be a little faster than this one.”

Layne has not firmed up his plans for the 2021 season at this time.

“I’m not saying anything for sure,” Layne said.

“It all depends on how things work out between now and then with this pandemic. I’m not going to say we’re going to race fulltime at one track. We will probably venture around some and find the best competition here and there.

“I might come back here (to South Boston Speedway) and try to win another championship,” he added.

“It just all depends on how things work out.”

South Boston Speedway is open Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. for teams wishing to schedule testing sessions. The track is available for testing from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. each day. Teams wishing to schedule a test at South Boston Speedway should contact the speedway office at 434-572-4947 at least a day ahead to schedule a test session.

“America’s Hometown Track” will kick off the 2021 season on Saturday, March 20 with twin races for the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series Late Model Stock Cars, twin races for the track’s Limited Sportsman Division and races for the Pure Stock and Hornets Divisions.

Prestige Performance with Wayne Taylor Racing Prepared to Finish the 2020 Season Strongly at Sebring International Raceway

Official Release
-

Sebring, Fla. (November 11, 2020) – Prestige Performance with Wayne Taylor Racing will compete at Sebring International Raceway in Rounds 9 and 10 of the 2020 North America Lamborghini Super Trofeo season.

Competing with seven drivers across three classes in the final event of the 2020 season, the team will be looking to carry on the good form shown at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca where they achieved four podiums along with a first win for Sydney McKee in the LB Cup.

Drivers Stevan McAleer and Stuart Middleton of the No. 1 Prestige Performance Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo will continue to compete in the PRO class, while Ashton Harrison and Andrea Amici remain focused on achieving their first win of the season in the PRO|AM class driving the No. 25 Harrison Contracting Lamborghini Super Trofeo. William Hubbell and Eric Curran return to Wayne Taylor Racing in the PRO|AM class to drive the No. 69 Hubbell Racing LST. Sydney McKee once again pilots her No. 87 FaDa Racing Lamborghini Super Trofeo in the LB Cup Class.

The opening race of the North American Lamborghini Super Trofeo series at Sebring International Raceway will begin on Friday, November 13th at 9:05 a.m. ET, with the second race taking place later the same day at 3:40 p.m. ET. All of the race action can be viewed live on IMSA.TV along with event updates available via the Wayne Taylor Racing social media channels.
Stevan McAleer, No. 1 Prestige Performance Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo (PRO)

“So, we are four points out of third place which is clearly the goal. The car we are chasing for third place has been very fast all year probably the fastest overall speed so we will certainly have our work cut out, but we found some pace at Laguna Seca so hopefully we can carry the momentum into the final race of the year. Sebring is my favorite track and the chances are slim, but I would love some rain to mix it up. We are eight points out of P2 so mathematically can still catch those guys as well so a lot to play for a lot on the line for Wayne Taylor Racing, Stuart and myself”

Ashton Harrison, No. 25 Harrison Contracting Lamborghini Super Trofeo (AM)
“I’m looking forward to Sebring and ending the year on a high note. Although it’s unfortunate Andrea and I had some hurdles at Laguna Seca, the year has been very successful, and we’ve learned a lot. Andrea and I have improved at every race and he have been a great teammate. Wayne Taylor Racing has been such a blessing this year and I’m really looking forward ending the season strong and to the 2021 season!”

Andrea Amici, No. 25 Harrison Contracting Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo (PRO)
“Nice memories from Sebring where I did my first race with Wayne Taylor Racing in 2015. Hope it will bring the right luck and speed for a great end of the season. Maximum attack for our first win”

Sydney McKee, No 87 FaDa Racing Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo (LB Cup)
“I am very excited for the final two rounds of the season at Sebring next week. It is a really tight turnaround from Laguna Seca to Sebring, which makes the race two win at Laguna even more impactful. We are looking to carry that momentum into a successful weekend to wrap up the year. This season has been very unique in many ways and it’s crazy to think that it is almost over, but I am hoping to use this final weekend to continue learning and hopefully get another win under my belt!”

Moorespeed and Team Driver Riley Dickinson Look for Competitive Close to 2020 IMSA Porsche GT3 Cup USA by Yokohama Season at Sebring

By
Official Release

SEBRING, Florida (November 9, 2020) – Moorespeed and team driver Riley Dickinson will close out the 2020 IMSA Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge USA by Yokohama racing season with the same competitive edge they have raced with all season in the No. 53 Moorespeed Porsche 911 GT3 Cup at this week’s season-ending doubleheader at Sebring International Raceway, November 11 – 13.

Competing in the top tier IMSA Porsche GT3 Platinum Cup division, Moorespeed and Dickinson have won three races as part of a run of 12 podium finishes in the first 14 of 16 rounds in this year’s championship.

The entire No. 53 team has battled for the Platinum Cup championship all season and arrives in Sebring second in the championship standings heading into Friday’s same-day doubleheader that brings the year to a close.

“Our plan is this week to go out there and give it 110%,” said Moorespeed President David Moore. “That’s what we do every time we go to a race. So, I expect no less from everybody on the team, and I know Riley is champing at the bit to get out there and finish the season off on a high note.”

Dickinson, 18, is completing his second season with Moorespeed and earned victories this year at Road America and on two different weekends of competition at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta.

“Going into this weekend, we are all looking forward to finishing out 2020 with a bang,” Dickinson said. “We have had overall a great year, the results may not have always been there, but moving forward there has been a lot for me to learn on and improve on for 2021 and onward. In the grand scheme of things, it was great for us, but it is still not over with this weekend ahead. I am looking forward to it and I am ready to get going.”

While the Platinum Cup championship is all but mathematically out of reach for Moorespeed and Dickinson, the No. 53 team will leave nothing on the table in Friday’s twin 45-minute sprints on the 3.74-mile Sebring circuit.

“We were always in the championship discussion,” Moore said. “For whatever reason, it hasn’t been our year for that, but we won races and were a contender at every event. Certain things didn’t go our way in certain races, but these things don’t come easy. Riley learned a lot and has developed a lot this year. There were some hard lessons learned too that overall will make him a stronger and better driver for the future. As long as we keep going out there and keep developing him – he is only 18 years old – he has a super bright future.”

The fact that the IMSA Porsche GT3 Cup series is even competing at Sebring this weekend is a rare silver lining in a year of COVID-19 cancellations and rescheduling. Sebring wasn’t on this year’s original Porsche GT3 Cup calendar but was added in IMSA’s extensive rescheduling after the COVID-19 shutdown in the first half of 2020. Dickinson makes his race debut on the legendary 3.74-mile road course after previously only testing at Sebring.

“The previous time I was here February of last year for a test we did before the 2019 season,” Dickinson said. “I believe it was only my first or second track outside of Texas that I went to in a Cup car. It was pretty cool to come back and relive it for a little bit, and I immediately fell back in love with it. What I grew up with in karting was unbelievably rough and bumpy, so Sebring with all of the ‘character’ – if you want to call it that – in the track is really fun for me to drive on.”

Dickinson and Moorespeed got reacquainted with Sebring last weekend when they arrived in town early for a Sunday test. If the tropical storm conditions that have settled over Florida since last weekend continue through the week, Moorespeed and Dickinson will be ready.

“We had a really good test Sunday because we had multiple conditions at the same track on the same day,” Moore said. “We had varied conditions in our first run, dry conditions in our second and full-on wet in our third. We have been here before, and I have been coming here for I don’t know how many years. It is one of my favorite places and I see it becoming one of Riley’s favorite places now too. It’s not everybody’s, but he loves it, and we saw it during the test. We were able to run our program that we needed to do even with the conditions. It actually worked out to our benefit.”

The IMSA Porsche GT3 Cup schedule gets underway with a single practice session Wednesday afternoon. Another practice session Thursday morning sets the stage for qualifying that afternoon at 12:45 p.m. EST. Friday’s doubleheader has races scheduled for 8 a.m. EST and 2:35 p.m. EST, with both doubleheaders streaming live on www.IMSA.com.

5 Ways to Pimp Your Car or Motorcycle

For most people, their cars or motorcycles are more than just automobiles that take them from point A to point B. Some go to great lengths to make their cars or motorbikes look nice and comfortable. The term for it is pimping the ride. There are many ways to pimp a ride. If what you have is a sports car, the process becomes a lot simpler and more exciting. Here, we will briefly discuss five ways you can pimp your ride:

Add a Theme to the Interior

You are not just pimping your car to impress people. You also need to make it comfortable for yourself, which is why interior design is super-important. Customize the interior of your car to your taste, and you will enjoy every moment you spend inside it. Add a theme; it could be related to any of your interests.

Use LED Taillights to Personalize Your Ride

LED taillights and complementary headlights can help you customize your automobile, including cars and motorcycles, to your taste. You may be surprised at how well your new lighting will improve your car’s appearance, even if it is a little old. This is obviously not the only thing you will need to do to pimp your car, but it will complement other efforts and give your car a fresher look. Likewise, you can personalize your motorbikes with professional motorcycle lights.

Likewise, you can personalize your motorbikes with professional motorcycle lights. With these customizations, especially if it’s a Harley-Davidson bike and you plan to sell it in the future, you will want to do a quick search of will Harley-Davidson buy my motorcycle? to see if they’ll accept it with your new additions to it when you decide to sell it.

Go for Stunning Sports Rims

A sports car deserves sports rims. Choosing stunning sports rims will not only perk up the superficial outlook of the car but will meaningfully improve its performance. You may not know it, but they will also make your car safer. When you are at high speed, they offer your car more stability. Sports rims also work better with the suspension, improving the handling performance at the same time.

Give It a Cool Paint Job

A paint job will always improve how your car looks. It is probably the most significant way to give your car exterior a facelift. The right paint job will undo years of damage to your car exterior, making it look a lot fresher. Remember, you don’t necessarily have to pick the original paint color. You can be adventurous with your choice of paint if you really want to pimp the car.

Get Your Car or Motorcycle Professionally Washed and Detailed

This may not sound like the most productive way to pimp your ride, but it is very important. There are other things you can do to make your car interior and exterior look great, but if you don’t wash and detail the car properly, your efforts will not amount to much. As much as the other points offer more valuable ways to pimp your ride, professional car wash, motorcycle wash, and detailing will help keep it looking good for a long time.

Endnote

Your sports car or motorcycle is much more than an automobile for transport. It will look better and feel more comfortable when you pimp it the right way. Thankfully, you can customize and upgrade your vehicle by adding a theme to the interior, installing LED tail lights, stunning sports rims, as well as a beautiful paint job.

Team Hardpoint Carries Unfinished Business To Sebring Twelve Hour For IMSA WeatherTech GTD Season Finale

Rob Ferriol to Co-Drive With Andrew Davis and Pierre Kaffer For Hardpoint’s First Attempt at the Historic Endurance Race

SEBRING, Florida (November 10, 2020) – Team Hardpoint and the IMSA WeatherTech Sports Car Championship’s 2020 season finale ends this weekend at the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring, where Andrew Davis and Pierre Kaffer will join Team Hardpoint principal and regular driver in the No. 30 GridRival/Team Hardpoint Audi R8 LMS GT3 in the GT Daytona (GTD) class for the endurance racing classic.

The green flag flies at 10:10 a.m. EST on Saturday, November 14 for the 12-hour classic on Sebring International Raceway’s 17-turn, 3.74-mile circuit. The full race can be seen live on television, on NBCSN from the green flag to 3 p.m. EST, switching to NBC from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m., and returning to NBCSN from 6 p.m. EST to the checkered flag. The race can also be streamed on TrackPass on the NBCSN app.

Team Hardpoint moves to Sebring coming off of a top-10 finish at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca and a strong showing at its debut endurance race, Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta. The Road Atlanta round ended three-hours shy of the checkered flag with a fuel pump issue, but the team was running strong throughout the race prior to the bad luck.

Team Hardpoint finished a season-best eighth at Sebring in July during the team’s second-ever start in GTD. That race was a two-hour, 40-minute sprint race with Ferriol and Spencer Pumpelly behind the wheel.

“We’re coming to Sebring with some unfinished business in our minds,” Ferriol said. “The individual pieces have all been there in the past few races, and now it’s time to put it all together so that we get the results we’ve been looking for. Sebring will be a challenge, but I think we’re up for it and this could be a special weekend for Team Hardpoint to end our first season.”

Ferriol will be joined by Kaffer and Davis for the race. Kaffer has a long history with Audi Sport and Audi Sport customer racing, including an overall win at Sebring in an Audi R8 Prototype in 2004. Kaffer has also won the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Nürburgring 24-hour race, and Petit LeMans in his storied race career.

Davis was with the team for Petit Le Mans, and has appeared in an Audi R8 GT3 for several years at endurance races. Davis will make his 12th appearance at the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring, his fifth behind the wheel of an Audi.

“I’m thrilled to have another chance to compete with Team Hardpoint,” Davis said. “I was very impressed with the performance of the team at last month’s Motul Petit LeMans. We made tremendous progress each session leading up to the race, and were on pace for a strong finish before our mechanical issue. It’s nice to be able to return to the team and work to help them finish the season on a strong note.”

The race weekend officially begins for Team Hardpoint and the WeatherTech Sports Car Championship on Thursday, November 12 at 10:05 a.m. EST for the weekend’s opening one-hour practice. The GTD class will have another hour for practice at 2:35 p.m., and again for another 90-minute “night practice” at 6:15 p.m. EST.

Saturday features a 15-minute qualifying at 10:15 a.m. EST, with the race beginning at 10:10 a.m. on Sunday.

Following a one-year absence, the F1 competition is set to return to Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne, Australia, for the season-opening Australian Grand Prix on March 21.

Along with Australia, the Grand Prix events in China, Monaco, Azerbaijan, Canada, France, the Netherlands, Singapore, Japan, the United States of America, Mexico and Brazil are set to return in 2021.

The Grand Prix events in Austria, Hungary, United Kingdom’s Silverstone, Spain, Belgium, Italy, Russia, Bahrain/Sakhir and Abu Dhabi are also set to remain on the 2021 calendar following the 2020 season.

The Vietnamese Grand Prix, which was originally scheduled to make its debut in 2020 but was cancelled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, has been dropped from the 2021 racing calendar and will not occur following the arrest of a key official responsible for the race due to corruption charges. Though the charges were not related to racing, the country will shift its focus on other government issues.

The following Grand Prix events that have occurred and were introduced to the 2020 schedule (Styrian, 70th Anniversary Grand Prix, Tuscan, Eifel, Portuguese, Emilia Romagna, Turkish and Sakhir) will not occur next season since they were featured to fill in as many Grand Prix events in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A Grand Prix is currently scheduled to occur on April 25 at a circuit that is yet to be announced.

The 2021 F1 season will conclude at Yas Marina Circuit for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on December 5.

The release of the 2021 F1 calendar comes amid the sport’s bizarre 2020 season amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic that delayed the start of the season from March to July and resulted with the schedule being revised to a total of 17 Grand Prix events, with the season set to conclude in mid-December at Yas Marina Circuit for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The 2020 season also marked the 70th anniversary of the first Formula One World Championship season, which occurred in 1950.

An F1 statement was made following the release of the 2021 schedule:

“The plans for 2021 have involved extensive dialogue with all promoters and their local and national authorities at a time of ongoing fluidity related to the global pandemic. Formula 1 and the FIA put in place robust health and safety measures to allow the revised 2020 season to restart and run effectively.”

“Our hosts for 2021 are reassured by our safe return to racing this season and confident that the plans and procedures we have in place will allow us to return to a level of normality for the 2021 season.”

“As we have said before, we expect fans to return for the 2021 season and for the calendar to look similar to the originally planned 2020 season. We will continue to work closely with our promoters and partners and look forward to the start of the season on the 18th March 2021 in Australia.”

Chase Carey, Chairman/CEO of Formula One, also released a statement regarding the 2021 schedule:

“We are pleased to announce the 2021 Formula 1 provisional calendar after extensive conversations with our promoters, the teams and the FIA. We are planning for 2021 events with fans that provide an experience close to normal and expect our agreements to be honoured.”

“We have proven that we can safely travel and operate our races and our promoters increasingly recognise the need to move forward and manage the virus. In fact, many hosts actually want to use our event as a platform to show the world they are moving forward.”

New to the 2021 Formula One schedule is the inaugural Grand Prix event at Jeddah Street Circuit in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix that is scheduled to occur on November 28. The event, which announced its entrance to the F1 calendar on November 5, will serve as the penultimate event of the season.

“We are delighted to see Saudi Arabia become part of the schedule and are equally excited to return to the venues we hoped to race at in 2020,” Carey added. “We want to thank all our promoters and partners for their ongoing enthusiasm and collaboration and look forward to giving our fans an exciting season on the track.”

The full 2021 Formula One schedule is as follows:

1. March 21: Australian Grand Prix (Melbourne)

2. March 28: Bahrain Grand Prix (Sakhir)

3. April 11: Chinese Grand Prix (Shanghai)

In addition to the provisional Formula 1 schedule, the provisional schedules for Formula 2 and 3 have also been revealed, with each series to hold three races per weekend. The F2 provisional schedule will feature eight rounds in eight nations while the F3 provisional schedule will feature seven rounds in seven nations. Both series will not race during a Grand Prix weekend as part of new cost-cutting measures with the decrease of the costs of engine lease, some spare parts, logistics and freight. In addition, the F2 cars used in 2021 and the 2019 F3 car’s specs will remain unchanged for the 2021 season.

The F2 series will race at Sakhir, Bahrain; Monte Carlo, Monaco; Baku, Azerbaijan; Silverstone, United Kingdom; Monza Italy; Sochi, Russia; Jeddah, Saudi Arabia; and Yas Marina, Abu Dhabi next season. The F3 series will race at Barcelona, Spain; Le Castellet, France; Spielberg, Austria; Budapest, Hungary; Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium; Zandvoort, Netherlands; and Austin, the United States of America in 2021.

All provisional schedules for each series are awaiting subject for approval by the FIA’s World Motor Sport Council.

• Chevrolet on verge of claiming GTLM Manufacturers Championship
• Corvette Racing looking for 13th Sebring victory

• Garcia, Taylor enter having clinched class Drivers title in No. 3 C8.R
• Final race for Gavin as full-time Corvette Racing pilot

DETROIT (Nov. 10, 2020) – Corvette Racing returns to Sebring International Raceway this weekend for the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring and the close of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season. It’s the second race at Sebring this year for the newly crowned GT Le Mans (GTLM) championship-winning program.

The 68th running of America’s oldest sports car race will bring the curtain down on the first year of the mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette C8.R. It has been an unqualified success with six race wins and the GTLM Drivers and Team titles… with one more event to go.

Saturday’s 12-hour endurance race also is set to serve as a coronation for Chevrolet, which will win the GTLM Manufacturers Championship as long as one of the two Corvette entries starts Saturday’s race. Already, Antonio Garcia and Jordan Taylor have secured the category’s Drivers Championship in the No. 3 Mobil 1/SiriusXM Chevrolet Corvette C8.R in the series’ most recent round at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca two weekends ago.

The runner-up finish in California for Garcia and Taylor, who drive this weekend with Nicky Catsburg, also netted the No. 3 Corvette squad the GTLM Team title. Since 2001, Corvette Racing has won 13 Team championships and 12 Drivers crowns.

Once the race begins and the Manufacturers title is settled, there are two goals for Corvette Racing: win for the 13th time at Sebring and secure second place in GTLM points for Tommy Milner and Oliver Gavin. The duo, driving the No. 4 Mobil 1/SiriusXM Corvette C8.R with Marcel Fässler, won earlier this year at Sebring in a two-hour, 40-minute sprint race.

The Sebring 12 Hours is steeped in Corvette Racing history. The event has witnessed the team take 11 class victories since 2002, and five of the six drivers have previously won there. Gavin leads with six GT-class victories, Garcia has three and Milner two. Taylor was part of one overall winning effort in the 12 Hours while Fässler has a GTLM win to his credit in a factory Corvette.

Saturday is the second long-distance race in three events for Corvette Racing and the rest of the WeatherTech Championship. Garcia, Taylor and Catsburg finished as GTLM runners-up in the 10-hour Petit Le Mans at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta. In the No. 4 Corvette, the Gavin/Milner/Fässler trio will look to capture their second Sebring 12 Hours together; they won in class in 2016.

It also would send out Gavin on one of the highest possible notes. He will end his 18-year run as a full-time Corvette Racing driver at Sebring – a place where he has won six times with the program… five in the 12 Hours of Sebring. He is the team’s all-time winner in career starts (202), IMSA championships (five) and wins (51), among other categories.

In addition to the Corvettes on the race track, Chevrolet will have a number of vehicles on display at its midway display from Thursday through Saturday. Chevrolet models at the static display will include the 2020 Corvette Stingray Z51, Camaro ZL1, Blazer Premier, Silverado 1500 Crew High Country, Trailerblazer RS and Tahoe Premier

The Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring is set for 10:10 a.m. ET on Saturday. NBCSN will air the race live from 10 a.m.-3 p.m., and 6-10:30 p.m. ET; live network coverage on NBC is 3-6 p.m. TrackPass on NBC Sports Gold will offer live streaming of the full race starting at 10:05 a.m. ET. In addition, IMSA Radio will broadcast the race on IMSA.com, which also will host live timing and scoring. The race also will air on XM channel 202 and SiriusXM Online 972.

ANTONIO GARCIA, NO. 3 MOBIL 1/SiriusXM CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8.R: “I don’t think our approach will change at Sebring having already won the championship. At Laguna Seca, I wasn’t really thinking about it. We knew that we just needed to start these last two races. Once we started at Laguna, I wasn’t conserving anything and was going all-out to win the race. I think it will be the same at Sebring. Maybe it will take some of the pressure off the team. But in a way, this brings Sebring a little bit back to normal where it’s the second race of the season and you don’t think about the championship. You take every risk needed. It’s a relief not to have to treat this as the last race of the championship, where you can tend to think too much. But now winning the championship opens things up for us. It becomes a single race that we want to win.”

JORDAN TAYLOR, NO. 3 MOBIL 1/SiriusXM CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8.R: “When at first the revised schedule came out, I think we were all pretty nervous knowing Sebring could be the deciding race in the championship. It’s an incredibly difficult race. Having that wrapped up now makes this almost like the Rolex 24 at the beginning of the year where your only focus isn’t on winning the championship. It’s nice to have that mentality going in. We can go in there focusing on getting the win. We had a good race there in July, so we have some race experience with the C8.R. We can look back to that to rely on some data for building blocks going into this race.”

NICKY CATSBURG, NO. 3 MOBIL 1/SiriusXM CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8.R: “The Sebring 12 Hours is a bit later in the year that we had planned! But it’s a race that is always very special. This is a unique circuit which makes this event difficult to win. I feel we have a very good chance to fight for the win. I can’t wait to get back in the Corvette again. Petit Le Mans was a good race for us, and I really enjoyed it. Now I am a little more into the car than when I arrived at Petit Le Mans; it hasn’t been that long ago. I hope we can finish off this championship season on a high and win this race.”

OLIVER GAVIN, NO. 4 MOBIL 1/SiriusXM CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8.R: “Racing in November at Sebring is going to be a little different. We’ll have some more darkness and it will probably be a little stormy. I still think it will be just as hot at it is in Sebring in March. We did race there in July and have already done that ‘warm-up’ to get us ready for the 12 Hours. Tommy and I came away victorious that day, so we’re looking to repeat that and for me to finish my full-time career at Corvette Racing with one more victory. It would also give me 50 wins in IMSA, which would be a nice little statistic to finish on.”

TOMMY MILNER, NO. 4 MOBIL 1/SiriusXM CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8.R: : “Running the 12 Hours of Sebring in November means we definitely will have a lot more darkness than we are used to, which is a challenge in itself. Sebring at night is tricky. The track has helped by putting lights at some of the apex corners but that doesn’t help you navigate some of the other parts of the track. Luckily, headlights were a priority of the C8.R and the team has done a good job of building in that lighting for night-time conditions. Hopefully that will minimize that challenge. The track temperatures also likely will be cooler so that could change some of the tire compound allocation options. We don’t usually make huge setup changes for certain times of day, but I think we obviously will pay more attention to what performance will be like in those conditions as opposed to the daytime hours. We have a good base to work from after our first and second at Sebring in July. We know the car is fast there, plus we have continued to learn throughout the year. We’re looking forward to putting that information on the racetrack and seeing if we have improved the car. I would guess that we have. Ending the season with another win and 1-2 finish would be awesome.”

MARCEL FÄSSLER, NO. 4 MOBIL 1/SiriusXM CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8.R: “I think the biggest change for Sebring is that we will run more at night. For sure, that’s an important thing for the tire choice. Usually Sebring is very crowded, and hopefully we get a lot of people that can come to the race. It would be great for the ambiance. But in the end, this is still a very tough and difficult race physically on us as drivers and on the equipment. Fortunately I was able to get some good time in the C8.R at Road Atlanta for Petit Le Mans, so both Nicky and I should be up to speed. It would be great to end the season with another Corvette Racing win.”
