MLT Confirms Kunzle, Madsen for Super Trofeo Season

MLT Motorsports has confirmed that Adrian Kunzle and Kevin Madsen will co-drive the team’s Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America entry in the Am class this year.

It marks the team’s second full season in Super Trofeo competition, with Kunzle and Madsen sharing seat duties since Watkins Glen last year.

“We’re eager to return to Lamborghini competition in 2025,” said team owner Dr. Michael Thompson. “Adrian and Kevin are returning to the No. 42 with a wealth of experience and a relentless drive for success.

“Their passion for racing aligns perfectly with our team’s commitment to performance and development. This season presents another incredible opportunity to compete at the highest level, and we’re excited to showcase our capabilities as a team and go after that championship.”

“I’m excited to be running a second season in the Lamborghini Super Trofeo Series,” said Kunzle. “I’m looking to build on the great progress the whole team made last year as we chase down as many podiums as possible.

“We have quite a few new drivers in the Am class this year, and it’s going to be fun getting to know them and compete with them on track.”

Kunzle and Madsen combined for four Lamborghini race weekends in 2024, including the Lamborghini World Finals at Jerez.

“Last year was an introductory year in Super Trofeo for MLT as well as my teammate Adrian,” said Madsen. “I was very pleased to join him mid-season and it’s been especially exciting seeing both him and the team improve considerably.

“Last year was about adaptation plus growth and this year we continue that growth together with an eye on the championship win.”

The team tested in preparation for this week’s season opener at Sebring as it looks to build on its season-ending fourth-place finish in the second race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

“Sebring is a track I’m getting to enjoy the more I drive it.” said Kunzle. “The bumps are a well-known challenge, but there are other corners with nuances, too, and working out how the car behaves through each of them is an endless challenge.

“I aim to have a clean race with lots of green flag time and finish on the podium!”

Madsen added: “Many drivers mention the bumps, but it’s a lot more than that. It’s also the different aggregate types and concrete, the nuances in the wet, the sweat-inducing humid environment and much more.

“Luckily, we have a very strong engineering team at MLT Motorsports, and we’ve been putting in the proper driver training and effort to succeed. Our goal for Sebring is lots of green flag, fun racing with many new faces and climbing the podium steps after each race.”
