Cadillac WTR Announce IMEC Drivers For Petit Le Mans
For the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season finale, Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing announced today its endurance co-drivers for the iconic Motul Petit Le Mans. Veteran sportscar racing drivers and Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA teammates Will Stevens and Norman Nato will join Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing for the 10-hour endurance event October 11 at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta.
Returning to the No. 10 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R alongside Ricky Taylor and Filipe Albuquerque is Will Stevens. This will mark the first time that Stevens has competed with Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing in the Motul Petit Le Mans. He drove the Grand Touring Prototype (GTP) car at Daytona International Speedway and Sebring International Raceway earlier this season.
Joining Jordan Taylor and Louis Delétraz in the No. 40 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R will be Norman Nato, who will make his Wayne Taylor Racing debut and his second start in the Petit Le Mans. Nato most recently co-drove with Stevens to victory in the FIA World Endurance Championship’s 6 Hours of Sao Paulo in the Cadillac Hypercar.
“Delighted to have Will back on board and to welcome Norman to our team for Petit Le Mans,” said Wayne Taylor, Team Owner. “It is great to have the drivers in place and ready to attend the Road Atlanta test in early September. As Cadillac factory drivers, they will both be a great addition to our effort at Petit.”
As Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing prepares for the final race of the 2025 IMSA season, the team will participate in a September 2-3 test at Road Atlanta. Both Stevens and Nato will be onsite to join their Cadillac WTR teammates.
Will Stevens, endurance co-driver, No. 10 Cadillac WTR V-Series.R: “I’m really looking forward to Petit Le Mans and getting back with everyone at Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing! It’s my first time at Road Atlanta so the test coming up in a few weeks is going to be vital for me to get to grips with the track but also as a team with our Cadillac V-Series.R. The team has been making good progress through the IMSA season so I can’t wait to get back to it.”
Norman Nato, endurance co-driver, No. 40 Cadillac WTR V-Series.R: “Really excited to be joining WTR for Petit Le Mans at the wheel of the Cadillac V-Series.R. Such an honor to drive for such an iconic team and with Jordan and Louis. They will guide me to adapt as quickly as possible to this new environment and focus on performance to deliver the best. Been racing at Petit now quite some time ago in 2018 for the first time. I really enjoyed the track; very challenging, which will make the race very exciting. The main target always remains to finish on top. We will work and prepare as best as possible to achieve our common goals with the team. The test in September will be important for me to get comfortable in the car, seat fitting-wise first and then to adapt to the team and my teammates. I quite know the car now as I race with the Cadillac V-Series in WEC with Hertz Team JOTA. My job will be to adapt to the team as quickly as possible to be able to deliver the best pace I can to help the team.”
