MOTUL Petit Le Mans marks the season finale for Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing as they wrap up the 2025 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season. Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta is host to the iconic 10-hour endurance event where Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing has won three times (2014, 2018, 2020).

Fresh off an impressive drive at Indianapolis, Ricky Taylor and Filipe Albuquerque will be joined again by Will Stevens to contest for the 10 hours of racing. Taylor and Albuquerque are quite experienced around Road Atlanta while this will mark the first time competing in Petit Le Mans for Stevens. The team may not be in the fight for the championship title entering the weekend, but the No. 10 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R GTP team will be looking to add to their current three podiums to end the year.

Coming from their best start for 2025 and despite an unlucky result in Indy, Jordan Taylor and Louis Delétraz are teaming up with Norman Nato for MOTUL Petit Le Mans. Taylor is the only one of the trio to have previously won at Road Atlanta, but the experience and skill of Delétraz and Nato will be key for delivering a top step finish come race day. Like their No. 10 teammates, the No. 40 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R GTP is keen to go all out for the final race of 2025.

“Petit Le Mans is such a historic event, and the atmosphere is pure sportscar fans,” said Wayne Taylor, Team Owner. “We had a strong weekend in Indianapolis recently as a team and it was a strong weekend for Cadillac Racing as a whole. Despite not being in the championship fight, we have got nothing to lose and will be giving it our all. This season has had its’ challenges, but I wouldn’t be able to do it without our incredible partners in DEX Imaging, Cadillac and GM and TWG Motorsports by our side. Now we just need to go win and close out the season strong.”

All preparations for MOTUL Petit Le Mans begin on Thursday, October 7, with three practice sessions. On Friday, October 10, will host qualifying at 4:20 p.m. ET to set the field. The MOTUL Petit Le Mans is set for 12:10 p.m. ET on Saturday, October 12. NBC will open the day with broadcast from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. ET and Peacock will be the streaming home of all 10 hours of racing action.

Ricky Taylor, Full Season Co-Driver, No. 10 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R GTP: “We did the majority of our testing in the beginning of the season to try and expedite our learning of this car. It was nice to have a test a bit later in the season where we could experiment with what we have learned over the first half of the season to try to make another jump. It will hopefully prove beneficial when we get to Petit Le Mans where we have historically had a strong car there in the past. Petit Le Mans is such a difficult race, we have found ourselves fighting for the win many times in the past but need to find the secret to winning the race in the end. Managing traffic and getting through the majority of the race is easier said than done, it is the race with the densest traffic on the schedule.”

Filipe Albuquerque, Full Season Co-Driver, No. 10 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R GTP: “We are closing down on the performance of the car. We qualified third at Indianapolis and finished second. Overall, this year has been very hard for us, but we have three podiums so far. We want to finish the season on a high. Many people are fighting for the championship and a better place in the championship, but we go for the race result - that's what we are aiming for. Hopefully we will have strong pace again at Petit. We have nothing to lose in the championship and if we have a small chance at the win, we will take all the risks necessary for it.”

Will Stevens, IMEC Co-Driver, No. 10 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R GTP: “I think we had a really solid couple of days testing a few weeks ago which hopefully will let us start off on a good basis when we get back for race week. I feel the team has really been gaining momentum, so we will all be pushing as hard as we can to finish the season off on a high! It's going to be my first Petit Le Mans, but I have watched it numerous times and looked at plenty of onboards as I know it’s a chaotic race and it's near impossible to get clear laps, so managing traffic well is going to be key to a good race.”

Jordan Taylor, Full Season Co-Driver, No. 40 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R GTP: “It’s hard to believe the final race of the year is already here. It feels like it has flown by. Lots of weekends to look back on and think what could have been. I feel like we come into Petit with a lot left to prove. We had a great test here a few weeks ago. We haven’t had many proper test days with the Cadillac, so feel like any extra time we get with it is so valuable. So, to be able to come to a track that we already have some experience on is great for us. Petit is one that everyone wants to win as a standalone event. We have nothing to lose in the championship, so we will be taking all the risk needed to go for the race win and end the season on a high.”

Louis Delétraz, Full Season Co-Driver, No. 40 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R GTP: “I'm very excited to go to Petit Le Mans. Cadillac has been very competitive as we have shown at the last race. On the 40 car, we got a little unlucky but that is the perfect way to get redemption at the last race of the year. We will go all in to have a good result. Wayne Taylor Racing, Cadillac Racing and I are excited to be there. It's such a historical event that everyone wants to win. There's a lot to watch for and manage with all the traffic, but we will be ready to go for the win.”

Norman Nato, IMEC Co-Driver, No. 40 Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing V-Series.R GTP: “I’m very pleased to be back at Petit eight years later after my first ever and last IMSA race. The last race for the Cadillac cars was an incredible result, so we have the ambition as a team to finish the season on a high. I shared some test days with Jordan and Louis a month ago which went really well. My job will obviously be to drive fast and help the guys to achieve our goal. I will have to adapt pretty quickly to this new environment, but I’m super excited and ready for this challenge.”
