The Cadillac No. 10 duo remains intact

In the No. 10 Cadillac, Ricky Taylor and Filipe Albuquerque will continue as the primary drivers for the entire season. Both have a notable track record with WTR and will continue to collaborate in pursuit of further success. Will Stevens, a familiar face to the team, will return to participate in the three endurance races on the calendar: the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the 12 Hours of Sebring, and Petit Le Mans. Brendon Hartley will complete the team at Daytona, marking his fourth collaboration with WTR.

Wayne Taylor highlighted the cohesion among the drivers of the No. 10, who have been working together for several years, providing a significant advantage in endurance races.
