Wright Motorsports has confirmed its Porsche Deluxe Carrera Cup North America program, with the Ohio-based squad set to field full season entries for Varun Choksey and John Goetz.

Both drivers return to Wright after contesting the Pro and Am class, respectively.

“Wright Motorsports has a strong history in the Carrera Cup series, and it’s great to be back for another season,” said team owner John Wright.

“Both Varun and John showed considerable progress over the course of last season, and we’re looking forward to being in the fight for the championship again this year.”

After a consistent season of development last year in his rookie season, Choksey earned two overall top-five finishes on the streets of Toronto.

“I’m looking forward to building on a strong first season in Porsche Carrera Cup last year,” he said. “There were plenty of highs and lows, but we made good progress through the year and learned a lot of valuable lessons.

“The 2023 season is approaching quickly, but I’ve spent the offseason preparing and making sure I’ll be straight up to speed when we get to the first weekend.

“I can’t wait for Sebring to get be back with the team and to get back on the racetrack.”

A longstanding driver with Wright, Goetz is back for another season, looking to build on last year’s success of one pole position, 13 podiums and race wins at the Long Beach Grand Prix and Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta.

“I’m looking forward to the third Carrera Cup North America season with Wright Motorsports,” Goetz said. “I’m expecting some serious fun driving with Varun again and working with the whole team to deliver great results.

“Hopefully I can continue to bring improvement to my craft and contribute to the Wright reputation. Driving a 992 Cup is my happy place.”
