 In News, Other

In another exciting development in Ben Tucks career, Ben Tuck will be joining Conquest Racings line up for the third and fourth rounds of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship Michelin Endurance Cup: the Sahlen’s Six Hours of The Glen at Watkins Glen International and the TireRack.com Battle on the Bricks at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Tuck will join full season teammates Manny Franco and Daniel Serra in the No. 34 Conquest Racing Ferrari 296 GT3. Tuck has previously driven in a one-off appearance in the 2023 GT World Challenge America at Indianapolis Motor Speedway with The Racers Group at the wheel of the Aston Martin Vantage AMR GT3.

A proven talent with a strong GT racing résumé in Europe, Tuck brings valuable endurance racing experience and fresh momentum as he prepares to make his IMSA debut. Following the team’s recent podium finish at the previous sprint round in Laguna Seca, Tuck will be looking to build on Conquest Racing’s strong momentum as they prepare for the next endurance event. Furthermore, he already has an excellent working relationship with Serra, with whom he co-drives a Ferrari 296 GT3 in the European Le Mans Series.

“I’m extremely excited to be joining Conquest Racing for the Sahlen’s Six Hours of The Glen and the TireRack.com Battle on The Bricks,” said Tuck. “IMSA is a championship that I’ve always aspired to race in, so I’m truly grateful to Manny Franco and Eric Bachelart and the team for this opportunity. I’ve been following the series for a long time, and to now be part of it with such a strong lineup alongside Manny and Daniel is a fantastic step in my career. I can’t wait to hit the track and see what we can accomplish together at Watkins Glen and IMS.”

Team Owner Eric Bachelart added: “We’re happy to welcome Ben to the team for Watkins Glen and Indianapolis. He’s shown impressive speed and composure in Europe’s top GT categories, and we believe his skillset will be a great asset to our program. These are demanding tracks, and with Manny, Daniel and Ben, we’re confident we have a strong lineup and we are ready to compete.” The upcoming Sahlen’s Six Hours of The Glen will take place from June 19th to 22nd at Watkins Glen International in upstate New York. The undulating and high-speed road course serves as a formidable challenge for all drivers and is a track at which Conquest Racing has seen prior success. The team earned a podium finish in the 2024 rendition of the event and will be aiming for a repeat performance.

Ben next races in the FIA World Endurance Championship for Round 4 at the biggest race of the year, the Le Mans 24 Hours on 14th and 15th June 2025.
