Trio Of Factory Stars Confirmed With Iron Lynx For 2024 Endurance Cup

LMDh drivers Cairoli, Bortolotti and Caldarelli team up

Lamborghini team Iron Lynx has confirmed tha three factory drivers will compete in its #63 Huracán GT3 in the 2024 World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup races.

The Italian team, which now represents Lamborghini at a factory level in prototype racing, will compete with Matteo Cairoli and longstanding teammates Mirko Bortolotti and Andrea Caldarelli.

Bortolotti and Caldarelli are unchanged from 2023, when they scored a season-opening podium at Monza but struggled for results thereafter. The Italians are among Lamborghini’s top talents and claimed the 2017 Fanatec GT Europe Endurance title together for Grasser Racing.

Cairoli arrives at Lambo for 2024 following a successful stint with Porsche. After a learning year with the upgraded Huracán last year, this line-up will be expected to challenge for wins this season and end Lamborghini’s wait for a victory at the Spa 24 Hours.

“We are delighted to be continuing in GT World Challenge into 2024 with the Lamborghini Hurácan GT3 Evo 2,” said team boss Andrea Piccini.

“We have an exceptional trio of drivers for our campaign this year, with Matteo, Andrea and Mirko all having proven their worth. This is an incredibly competitive championship, with the best GT teams and drivers around, and the experience gained by being in the championship is hugely beneficial for all of our GT3 programmes.”

The #63 Iron Lynx Lamborghini is among the 53-car field that is out testing at Circuit Paul Ricard this week as part of the World Challenge Europe pre-season Prologue.
