International Raceway for Saturday’s 66th Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring. Taylor and his older brother Ricky Taylor won this event convincingly a year ago with third driver Alex Lynn of Great Britain, crossing the finish line 13 seconds ahead of the runner-up No. 5 Action Express Racing Cadillac DPi-V.R of Christian Fittipaldi, Joao Barbosa and Felipe Albuquerque to lead a 1-2-3 Cadillac sweep of the podium. The No. 31 Action Express Racing Cadillac DPi-V.R. of Dane Cameron, Eric Curran and Mike Conway finished third, a lap down. The Konica Minolta Cadillac team led 123 of the 348 laps around the 3.74-mile, 17-turn Sebring circuit a year ago, taking charge of the race in the closing hours after a crafty fuel-saving strategy. The 2017 Sebring victory made it back-to-back wins to open the season after the Taylor brothers, now retired Italian veteran Max “The Ax” Angelelli and four-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Jeff Gordon co-drove to victory at the Rolex 24 At Daytona. It also came 21 years to the day since their father and team owner, three-time sportscar champion Wayne Taylor, locked down back-to-back victories at Daytona and Sebring. Ricky Taylor and Cameron have since left their respective teams from a year ago to join the new, two-car Team Penske Prototype-class effort for 2018, opening the door for new full-time co-driver van der Zande, the Dutch sportscar veteran, alongside the younger Taylor brother in the No. 10 Konica Minolta Cadillac DPi-V.R. Ricky Taylor’s departure ended a four-year run of co-driving with his younger brother. In 41 races together, they scored 12 wins, 25 podium finishes and nine pole positions. Van der Zande is a 32-year-old from Amsterdam and co-drove with Belgian sportscar ace Marc Goossens last season in the No. 90 Spirit of Daytona Racing Prototype-class entry, scoring a signature win thanks to his dramatic pass for the lead during the closing moments of September’s penultimate round at Laguna Seca, as well as a solid podium finish at the Rolex 24. Van der Zande has been a recent fixture on the IMSA WeatherTech circuit, scoring nine race wins, 18 podium finishes and the 2016 championship for the LMPC-class Starworks Motorsport team during a three-year run that begin in 2014. Prior to his arrival on the North American scene in 2013, he had driven in virtually every major racing series worldwide, including Formula Renault, A1GP, GP2, German Touring Car, World Endurance Championship, Porsche SuperCup, and the Blancpain Endurance Series. His professional career began to take shape when he won the 2005 Formula Renault 2.0 championship in his native country. Hunter-Reay returned at last year’s season-ending Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta to the team with which he co-drove to a runner-up finish at the 2013 Rolex 24 At Daytona alongside Taylor and Angelelli, when they led 56 of 709 laps and were beaten only behind the No. 01 Chip Ganassi Racing entry. He is the most successful active American driver in open-wheel competition, having won the 2012 IndyCar Series championship, the 2014 Indianapolis 500, was the 2008 Indy 500 Rookie of the Year, and has 16 career IndyCar victories and six career pole positions. Last season was his eighth season driving for Andretti Autosport, racing car No. 28 to represent the 28 million people living with cancer worldwide. Hunter- Reay opened the 2018 IndyCar season last weekend with a solid fifth-place finish in the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg (Fla.). At this year’s season-opening Rolex 24, van der Zande qualified the No. 10 Konica Minolta Cadillac DPi-V.R on the pole in his maiden qualifying voyage with his new team. He led the opening 18 laps of the race and he and Taylor and Hunter-Reay stayed comfortably with the leaders over the first third of the race. But various issues ultimately cost several laps while making repairs and unscheduled pit stops and the team retired during the 17th hour and left Daytona credited with 15th place. That disappointing result ended a remarkable five-year run for the team at the 3.56-mile, 12-turn Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway road course, during which it put nary a wheel off, logged respective race-day finishes of second, second, third, second and first, and led just short of 1,000 laps along the way. Two years ago this weekend, the Taylor brothers and Angelelli were joined by former Formula One star Rubens Barrichello for the second race in a row but had to settle for a disappointing 12th-place finish in the Sebring 12-hour when electrical issues ended their race three hours from the finish. Three years ago this weekend, the Taylor brothers and Angelelli overcame bizarre brake issues and an early race incident to score a solid runner-up finish at Sebring. Four years ago this weekend, in the team’s first-ever visit to Sebring, Ricky Taylor qualified third but he and his brother and Angelelli could finish no better than seventh after a triple-whammy of incidents set them back. The decisive incident occurred during the final 90 minutes of the race with Taylor running third. An LMPC-class car ahead of him spewed oil all over the No. 10 Corvette’s windscreen and, moments later, Taylor found himself venturing off course in the darkness with his visibility severely hampered. That necessitated an unscheduled pit stop to clear the windscreen and Taylor could not overcome the deficit to the leaders thereafter, particularly with a 35-minute caution period stopping any progress he could make. Early in the race, Angelelli was penalized for entering a closed pit lane and, near the race’s midpoint, Jordan Taylor had to make an unscheduled stop to clear grass and mud from the radiator grille after having to venture off course to avoid a heavy collision between two other competitors ahead of him. Jordan Taylor will be making his seventh Sebring appearance after having driven for Corvette Racing in the GT class of the 2012 and 2013 enduros with teammates Jan Magnussen and Antonio Garcia in the No. 3 Corvette C6.R. They finished second in class in 2012 and 11th in 2013. This weekend marks the fifth career Sebring appearance for van der Zande. He drove for the Starworks Motorsport Prototype Challenge-class team from 2014 through 2016 and logged podium finishes of third in 2014 and 2016 and a fifth-place finish in 2015. Last year, he finished sixth overall in the No. 90 Spirit of Daytona entry alongside Goosens and Rene Rast. Hunter-Reay will be making his eighth career Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring appearance, his first in 2002 in the JMB Racing GT-class Ferrari, followed by four in a row from 2010 through 2013 with the Level 5 Motorsports team.

    Contact: Adam Saal Bill Klingbeil SRT Motorsports Thursday Practice Notes Twelve Hours of Sebring at Sebring International Raceway March 12, 2014, SEBRING, Fla. - SRT (Street and Racing Technology) Motorsports ran through a thorough and complete schedule of testing Thursday with its Viper GTS-R teams at Sebring International Raceway in the opening day of practice for Saturday’s 62nd annual Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring Fueled by Fresh from Florida. Placing an emphasis on team execution and pre-race preparation rather than an all-out pursuit for top speed, both the No. 91 SRT Viper GTS-R and drivers Marc Goossens, Dominik Farnbacher and Ryan Hunter-Reay, and the sister No. 93 SRT Viper GTS-R of Jonathan Bomarito, Kuno Wittmer and Rob Bell, were put through their preliminary paces of the weekend.

In total, the six drivers on the SRT lineup have a combined one victory, four podiums and nine top-five results in 22 career appearances in the 12 Hours of Sebring. Hunter-Reay co-drove to a victory in the LMP2 class in the 2011 edition of the endurance race and was the class runner-up last year. Both Farnbacher and Goossens have appeared on the podium at Sebring. This weekend’s race at Sebring marks the one-year anniversary of SRT Motorsports’ return to major-league sports car racing in last year’s 12-hour classic.
