Ben Tuck will join Conquest Racing for the next two IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup races, beginning with the Sahlen’s Six Hours of The Glen later this month.

The Silver-rated driver, who replaces Cedric Sbirrazzuoli in the team’s GTD lineup, will join full season drivers Manny Franco and Daniel Serra at the wheel of the No. 34 Ferrari 296 GT3 for Watkins Glen and the Battle on the Bricks at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

“IMSA is a championship that I’ve always aspired to race in, so I’m truly grateful to Manny Franco and Eric Bachelart and the team for this opportunity,” said Tuck.

“I’ve been following the series for a long time, and to now be part of it with such a strong lineup alongside Manny and Daniel is a fantastic step in my career. I can’t wait to hit the track and see what we can accomplish together at Watkins Glen and IMS.”

Team owner Eric Bachelart added: “We’re happy to welcome Ben to the team for Watkins Glen and Indianapolis. He’s shown impressive speed and composure in Europe’s top GT categories, and we believe his skillset will be a great asset to our program.

“These are demanding tracks, and with Manny, Daniel and Ben, we’re confident we have a strong lineup and we are ready to compete.”
