Experienced GT3 racer Ben Green will complete 13 Autosport’s lineup for the Rolex 24 at Daytona.

Green, a race winner with JMR’s Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R in GT World Challenge Asia powered by AWS, will join the previously confirmed lineup of Orey Fidani, Matt Bell and Lars Kern in the No. 13 Corvette for the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season opener.

“Ben is fast and consistent,” said team owner/driver Fidani. “His background and success speaks for itself, he is very talented and a proven winner across many highly competitive championships.

“Daytona demands a team that trusts one another completely, and adding Ben gives us exactly that.

“We’re coming into the24 Hours with renewed confidence and we know we have what it takes to fight for a win. I’m very confident in this team and lineup, and we’re all looking forward to getting back to Daytona soon.”

Green, who joins the defending GTD class-winning driver lineup, will get his first laps in the AWA-operated Corvette at the Roar Before the Rolex 24.

“I’m thrilled to be joining 13 Autosport and Team Chevy for the Rolex 24 at Daytona,” said Green. “It’s a race I’ve always dreamed of competing in, and I’m incredibly grateful to everyone involved in bringing this program to life.

“We’ve got a strong lineup and high expectations, so I’m looking forward to meeting the full crew in January and getting to work.

“I can’t think of a better way to kick off 2026. The IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship has an extremely competitive field, and this is one of the toughest endurance races in the world to win, but I already feel like we have the resources to be in a great position to fight at the front.”

This announcement comes on the heels of 13 Autosport’s newly unveiled branding, an identity that reflects the team’s evolution and is rooted in Canadian heritage.

“Our new logo is more than a fresh look, it’s a nod to where we come from,” said Fidani. “It reflects our Canadian legacy, our values, and the pride we carry into every race.

“We wanted something that felt distinctly Canadian, strong, and unmistakably ours, and I think this identity captures exactly who we are as a team.”
