Lamborghini has confirmed that Andrea Caldarelli and Marco Mapelli will be the full season drivers in Pfaff Motorsports’ Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 in the 2025 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season.

The announcement, which came on Tuesday, follows the team’s driver lineup confirmation for this weekend’s season-opening Rolex 24 at Daytona, where the duo will be joined by Jordan Pepper and James Hinchcliffe in the GTD Pro class entry.

Hinchcliffe, meanwhile, has been announced for the Michelin Endurance Cup races with the team.

Both Caldarelli and Mapelli are set for their first full season WeatherTech Championship campaigns, although Caldarelli previously contested GT World Challenge America powered by AWS on a full-time basis with K-PAX Racing.

“I am very excited to be part of this program for the full season in IMSA,” said Caldarelli. “It will be a challenge for all of us, as it is the first year for Pfaff Motorsports with Lamborghini, but we will try to speed up the process as much as possible to be competitive.

“Sharing the car with Marco for the full season is amazing; we have a great friendship and IMSA was always on our bucket list.”

Mapelli added: “Joining Pfaff Motorsports for the IMSA season and driving the Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 it’s a fantastic opportunity, and one that I’m very proud of.

“Pfaff is a proper team with an absolute reputation and incredible dedication. It’ll be a great challenge together with Lamborghini Squadra Corse support. I can’t wait to work with Andrea, James, Jordan and this great group of people.”

The Canadian team, which won the 2022 GTD Pro class title with Porsche, has made the switch from McLaren to Lamborghini GT3 machinery for this year.
