Sant’Agata Bolognese is playing a long game. Lamborghini, with its new Temerario GT3 car slated for a 2026 debut, is taking a deliberate, almost cautious approach to its racing future. Chief Technical Officer Rouven Mohr’s recent pronouncements signal a strategic shift, prioritizing development and focused team support over a broad, immediate racing footprint.
The Temerario, a clean-sheet GT3 design, arrives at a time of intense competition. While the allure of a Rolex 24 at Daytona debut is undeniable, Mohr’s comments suggest a pragmatic realism. “It would be the dream,” he admitted, but the challenges of launching a new car in such a grueling endurance event are not lost on the team. Instead, Lamborghini intends to roll out the Temerario in “very selected race series,” allowing for meticulous data gathering and refinement.
This measured approach extends to Lamborghini’s customer racing strategy. Gone are the days of widespread support. The company is now focusing its resources on a smaller cadre of “performance-orientated teams,” those with ambitions that align with Lamborghini’s own. This reflects a growing trend in GT3 racing, where manufacturers are increasingly prioritizing quality over quantity.
The Temerario’s influence extends beyond GT3. The 2027 Super Trofeo model will be derived from the GT3 platform, a departure from the previous Huracan-based approach. This convergence highlights a streamlined development process, leveraging the GT3 car’s technological advancements for its single-make series.
Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of Lamborghini’s strategy is its connection to the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC). Mohr’s comments suggest that the LMGT3 program is inextricably linked to the brand’s Hypercar aspirations. While an immediate LMGT3 entry is unlikely, a Hypercar return could pave the way for a future presence in the GT category. Lamborghini’s current focus is on improving the LMDh platform. If that platform becomes competitive, and they find a suitable team, they will then consider LMGT3.
With test activities for the GT3 car scheduled to begin mid-year, the development timeline is progressing. The pressure is on, as demand for new Lamborghini GT3 cars is high, particularly with the Huracan’s production run concluding. Lamborghini’s calculated gamble with the Temerario will determine its future in the fiercely competitive world of GT3 racing, and potentially, its return to the pinnacle of endurance racing.

Sebring International Raceway roared to life as Danny Formal and Hampus Ericsson piloted the No. 1 Wayne Taylor Racing (WTR) Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2 to a commanding victory in the opening round of the Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America season. WTR’s day was a masterclass in racing strategy and execution, culminating in multiple class wins.
Formal laid the groundwork with a blistering first stint, building a substantial lead before a multi-car collision triggered a full-course caution. The ensuing pit window, timed perfectly by WTR, allowed Ericsson to inherit the lead and control the race from the restart. The No. 1 machine crossed the line a decisive 10.731 seconds ahead of TR3’s Elias De La Torre and Will Bamber, who fought valiantly for second. Jaden Conwright and Scott Huffaker secured the final podium spot in their No. 22 World Speed entry, followed closely by WTR’s Nick Persing and the No. 4 ANSA Motorsports Lamborghini.
The Pro-Am class saw Anthony McIntosh and Brendon Leitch of WTR capitalize on a late-race spin by Tyler Hoffman, who struggled with cold tires after a strong opening stint by teammate Luke Berkeley in the No. 28 Alliance Racing Lamborghini. WTR’s dominance continued in the Am class, with Graham Doyle and Glenn McGee delivering a comfortable victory over David Staab’s solo effort in the No. 48 Precision Performance Motorsports entry.
In the LB Cup, Nick Groat of One Motorsports emerged victorious, with Mark Brummond’s Forty7 Motorsports machine trailing behind. The race was punctuated by a dramatic three-car incident early on, resulting in significant damage to Adrian Kunzle’s MLT Motorsports entry, Clay Wilson’s No. 37 TR3 Lamborghini, and cosmetic damage to the No. 99 RAFA Racing machine. Kunzle, penalized for incident responsibility, was unable to serve his penalty due to retirement. Wilson’s stricken TR3 required recovery from Turn 15. Mateo Siderman also retired early, pulling his No. 63 TR3 machine behind the Turn 13 wall under caution.
The timing of the caution period created a strategic pit stop window challenge, with the 10-minute window opening with just over 30 minutes remaining. Notably, Andy Lee and Slade Stewart’s No. 14 Flying Lizard Motorsports Lamborghini was a non-starter due to qualifying crash damage, despite Lee’s impressive second-place qualifying effort in Pro-Am. David Hodge’s No. 25 Alliance Racing machine also failed to start.
The stage is set for an electrifying Race 2, scheduled for Friday at 5:05 p.m. EST. Watch the action live and on rebroadcast here…

Kaizen Autosport, a name synonymous with driver development and racing excellence at Virginia International Raceway (VIR), has announced its bold entry into the Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America series. The team’s expansion marks a significant milestone, transitioning from successful programs in Porsche Sprint Challenge, Trans Am, and Ginetta Challenge to the high-profile IMSA-sanctioned single-make championship.
“After six years of building Kaizen into a world-class racing school and training program, we are thrilled to take this next step into Pro racing with our entry into the Lamborghini Super Trofeo Series,” declares team owner Peter Heffring. This move underscores Kaizen’s commitment to nurturing talent and competing at the highest levels of motorsports.
The team’s No. 44 Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2, adorned with a striking livery, will be piloted by the duo of Seth Henry and Wyatt Foster. This venture is made possible through the support of Magellan Financial and Alloy Wealth Management, with the car owned by Mark Henry, Alloy’s founder and CEO.
Seth Henry, a remarkable talent transitioning from oval tracks to road racing, brings a compelling story to the team. As the inaugural Ginetta Challenge North America champion, his rapid ascent is a testament to Kaizen’s training prowess. “I began my racing career with Kaizen Autosport without road racing experience,” Seth explains. “In my first year, I became the 2024 North American Ginetta Challenge champion, winning seven out of ten races, and now I’m competing in IMSA. It’s a dream come true.”
Wyatt Foster, Kaizen’s director of driver development and a seasoned professional coach, completes the driver lineup. “I’ve been part of the Kaizen family for six years,” Foster shares. “I’m honored to use my coaching and driving skills to help launch this new team.” His experience and expertise will be invaluable as Kaizen aims to make an immediate impact in the fiercely competitive Super Trofeo series.
Kaizen Autosport’s move into Lamborghini Super Trofeo signifies a pivotal moment in the team’s evolution. With a blend of emerging talent and seasoned experience, they are poised to make their mark on the championship, bringing their unique blend of driver development and racing passion to the forefront of the series.

American hotshoe Colin Queen, 20, is trading open-wheelers for a roof and a raging bull, signing with ANSA Motorsports for the 2024 Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America season. Queen, fresh from a European single-seater stint, will share an ANSA-prepped Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo EVO2 with fellow young gun Enzo Geraci in the Pro class. Think of it as a racing mullet: business in the front (single-seaters), party in the back (GT racing).
“Transitioning to GT is a whole new ballgame,” Queen told us. “It’s about teamwork, strategy, and getting your head around a 600-plus horsepower beast. Plus, these American tracks are nothing like the Euro circuits I’m used to.”
Queen’s been hitting the books, or rather, the track, with a recent two-day test at Sebring. “The ANSA crew is top-notch. I gelled with the car quick, which is crucial,” he said. “Now, it’s about nailing the details and hitting Sebring running.” And nail it he better. Queen’s got big ambitions. “Endurance racing is the ultimate goal,” he said. “Super Trofeo is the perfect proving ground for team dynamics and race craft.”
Forget the lone wolf stuff. This is a team effort. “It’s about pushing each other with Enzo, maximizing every session, and executing a flawless strategy,” Queen emphasized. The Sebring test proved Queen’s adaptability, but the real test comes next weekend. The Super Trofeo season kicks off at Sebring, supporting the legendary Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring. Expect Queen to be thrown into the deep end, battling seasoned GT veterans and learning the ropes of multi-class racing. “Driving a Lamborghini is an honor,” Queen said. “It’s a legendary brand, and I’m ready to push this machine to its limits.”
