TDS Racing is one of the first teams to make its presence in IMSA official next season in LMP2. The Montpellier-based team run by Xavier Combet and Jacques Morello will field two Oreca 07s for the entire 2023 championship. 

 

Until today, only Steven Thomas has been confirmed in the LMP2 car, which will carry the #11, the number of the American driver. The names of his two teammates are now known and TDS Racing is clearly one of the favorite teams in LMP2. Scott Huffaker and Mikkel Jensen will join Steven Thomas at the 24 Hours of Daytona at the end of January.

Scott Huffaker, 23, competed in IMSA long races at PR1/Mathiasen Motorsports this season in an LMP2. He was with PR1/Mathiasen since 2019. No need to introduce Mikkel Jensen, official Peugeot driver in Hypercar. The Dane, who will celebrate his 28th birthday on December 31, is as comfortable in a prototype as he is in a GT. He was also part of the PR1/Mathiasen Motorsports adventure this year in LMP2. 

 

The name of the fourth driver for the 24 Hours of Daytona will be announced later.

 Unsurprisingly, the Oreca 07's livery has been designed by GaazMaster Motorsport, a long-time partner of TDS Racing.   François Heriau is the only confirmed driver for the second Oreca 07 of the French team.
