TDS Racing has completed its driver line-up for the 2026 European Le Mans Series, with confirmation that Scott Huffaker and Sami Meguetounif will join Steven Thomas in its #14 ORECA 07–Gibson LMP2.
The trio will run in LMP2 Pro/Am, in a complete overhaul of the French outfit’s Pro/Am line-up compared to last season.
ELMS rookie Thomas has competed in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship for the past five years, winning seven races and multiple IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup titles in LMP2, with the past three of those seasons spent at TDS. The American also won the LMP2 Pro/Am class at the 2022 24 Hours of Le Mans, with Algarve Pro Racing.
Three-time 12 Hours of Sebring LMP2 winner Huffaker previously raced alongside Thomas at TDS in 2023, when he competed in IMSA in a Michelin Endurance Cup-only role. The 26-year-old drove in Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America last season, and last raced in the ELMS in 2023, when he challenged for the LMGTE title with Kessel Racing.
FIA Formula 3 race winner Meguetounif made his sportscar debut this winter in the Asian Le Mans Series, with the single-seater convert claiming multiple podium finishes in LMP2 with Algarve Pro Racing.
Alongside the #14 ORECA, TDS Racing will once again run Panis Racing’s ELMS programme in 2026, as Olivier Panis’ eponymous effort attempts to defend its LMP2 title under the Forestier Racing by Panis banner. Oliver Gray, Esteban Masson and newcomer Louis Rousset will share this entry.
The 2026 European Le Mans Series season begins at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, Spain on 10–12 April 2026.
