“I think it’s crazy to have the chance to do the 24 hours of Daytona with this team,” rejoices the person concerned, winner of the Indianapolis Grand Prix in 2021. I always dreamed of racing with Frits (Van Eerd), my loyal sponsor. It’s great that his dream came true! »
The gentleman driver and team boss, Frits Van Eerd, has long kept an eye on Hoofddorp's hope. “Since he left for America at the age of 16 five years ago, I have been involved in Rinus' career. The fact that we will now race together at Daytona is of course a wonderful crown to this collaboration. »
The two men will be associated with Giedo van der Garde and Dylan Murry. In addition to the 24 Hours of Daytona, Racing Team Nederland will contest the other three rounds of theEndurance Cup in IMSA namely the 12 Hours of Sebring, the 6 Hours of Watkins Glen and Petit Le Mans.
