TF Sport reveals the livery and complete line up of its Corvette Z06 GT3.R
With just a few weeks to go until the beginning of the 2026 European Le Mans Series campaign, TF Sport strips the veil from the livery of its Corvette Z06 GT3.R. The #33 car, which will start the season as the reigning champion in the LMGT3 category, is ready to be driven by three talented drivers.
After an extremely successful 2025 campaign that ended with winning both the Drivers’ and Teams’ class titles, the returning champion of the LMGT3 class will show off a brand new livery for what promises to be another exciting and hard-fought season. What was once the “Chromevette” is now a Z06 GT3.R with a phosphorescent green front and blue rear, with a light shade that accompanies the color transformation along with thin horizontal stripes running across the bodywork. The livery is completed by a black section that is more pronounced than in the past, enveloping the lower part of the car and extending further into the rear.
At the wheel of the #33 Vette will be an all-new line up featuring Blake McDonald, Alec Udell and Charlie Eastwood. McDonald is a relatively new acquaintance for the team: after finishing second in the Pro-Am class of the GT World Challenge America Powered by AWS 2025, the American drove for TF Sport during the 2025/2026 Asian Le Mans Series, immediately demonstrating his speed and racecraft. Alec Udell, on the other hand, is a new face for TF Sport: born in Houston, Texas, in 1995, the American has plenty of experience with Chevrolet and Corvette machinery. After competing in various categories in the United States, Udell raced in the 2025 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship with a Corvette Z06 GT3.R, earning many solid championship points also thanks to the support of what will once again be his teammate: Charlie Eastwood.
Born in Belfast in 1995, the Northern Irishman has been a fixture at TF Sport for years: with the team, Eastwood won the 2020 24 Hours of Le Mans in the LMGTE Am class, was champion of the LMP2 Pro/Am class in the 2022 European Le Mans Series and, in 2025, took third place at the Le Mans 24 Hours and clinched the LMGT3 title in the European Le Mans Series.
With a completely revamped livery and a new lineup, TF Sport is looking forward to the start of the European Le Mans Series: the stage is set for April 7, 2026, when official testing will take place at the Circuit de Catalunya in Barcelona.
