The stable Chip Ganassi Racing, who had deserted the championship IMSA this year after the end of the official Ford program in GTLM at the end of 2019, will return to the series, this time in DPi.

“We look forward to returning to IMSA and challenging for the overall victory after several years of competing in the GTLM category, specifies boss Chip Ganassi.

Our relationship with General Motors has expanded with the Nascar (CGR operates Chevrolet Camaros) and we couldn't be happier. The partnership with Cadillac is a great opportunity for our team and we want to start showing results in January at Daytona. »
