“I am excited to represent Lamborghini in GTD this coming season. I am excited with our driver line up,” said Wayne Taylor, Team Principal, Wayne Taylor Racing with Andretti. “I think Graham Doyle and Ashton Harrison will really be good at the Rolex and then Graham doing all the endurance races. Graham is still very young, but what he achieved this year in LST made it a no brainer to hire him. Ashton will be a great fourth driver. She is an important part of our WTRAndretti Global program.”
Rookie Graham Doyle will join Marcelli and Formal in the No. 45 WTRAndretti Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2 for the five endurance events that make up the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup (IMEC). Veteran driver Ashton Harrison will bring her multi-year sportscar and endurance experience to the GTD cockpit for the 24 Hour ‘round the clock classic and season opener of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.
