The Paul Miller Racing team is hoping 2025 will be twice as nice, as the team prepares to enter two BMW M4 GT3 EVO machines in the GTD Pro class of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.

 

The iHeartRadio-backed team is in the midst of a successful first year in GTD Pro, with co-drivers Bryan Sellers and Madison Snow currently leading the Michelin Endurance Cup with one round to go and sitting third in the season-long championship.

 

The season has been highlighted by a stellar win-from-pole at VIRginia International Raceway, as well as podium finishes at the Rolex 24 at Daytona and IMSA SportsCar Weekend at Road America.

 

Joining the No. 1 for the 2025 season will be a welcome return to the No. 48 for the team.

 

Paul Miller Racing ran the No. 48 up until the 2021 season, Winning the 2018 GTD championship, 2020 Rolex 24 at Daytona and 2020 IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup under the 48 banner.

 

The No. 1 has been equally successful for the team, locking up the 2022 IMSA Sprint Cup and claiming five victories en route to the 2023 GTD Championship with the number.

 

“This is a pretty momentous day for all of us at the team,” Paul Miller Racing team owner, Paul Miller, said.

 

“We’ve been a one-car operation since the team’s formation, but it’s very exciting for everyone to be in a position where we can run two cars—and in the top GT class no less.

 

“The relationship with BMW has been a really excellent one and we’re excited to represent the brand with not one, but two incredible new M4 GT3 EVO machines in 2025.”

 

Team manager Mitchell Simmons added, “2025 will mark a rebirth of Paul Miller Racing. With the addition of another GTD Pro car we will enter the 2025 season as a two-car Pro effort for the first time in history.

 

“We would like to thank Andreas Roos and his amazing crew on both sides of the pond that helped make this happen. And I know this entire team will work hard to bring BMW its first GTD Pro Championship.”

 

“We are delighted that Paul Miller Racing is committing to the BMW M4 GT3 EVO for the upcoming IMSA season and is even expanding its involvement in the GTD Pro category to two cars,” Björn Lellmann, Head of Customer Racing at BMW M Motorsport said.

 

“The team is a true powerhouse in US racing, having won many titles. We at BMW M Motorsport want to make our best possible contribution to ensure that Paul Miller Racing can aim for the title in its second season in the top GTD class.”

 

“What's better than one Paul Miller Racing BMW M4 GT3 racing car? Two Paul Miller Racing BMW M4 GT3 racing cars," Adam McGregor, BMW of North America Motorsport and Customer Racing Manager added.

 

"The 2023 GTD class champions will double BMW's chances in IMSA's GTD Pro class in 2025 with two new BMW M4 GT3 EVO racing cars and we are delighted to support their endeavor in any way possible. Mr. Miller has done a wonderful job representing The Ultimate Driving Machine on and off the track and we are looking forward to continuing to grow our relationship."

 

Further announcements regarding the Paul Miller Racing 2025 driver lineups and team partners will be made at a later date.
