Pfaff Motorsports steps up to GTD Pro class in 2022
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Fresh off their title success in GTD, Pfaff Motorsports have announced that they will be stepping up to the new GTD Pro category in the IMSA WeatherTech Sportscar Championship in 2022.

The Canadian squad will once again field the #9 Porsche 911 GT3 R. The Plaid Porsche will be driven by a full Porsche factory line-up, consisting of Matt Campbell, Mathieu Jaminet and new factory driver Felipe Nasr.

Campbell and Jaminet have teamed together at multiple occasions in the past, including at WeatherTech Racing’s GTLM effort during the 2021 campaign. In that car, the duo won both the Twelve Hours of Sebring and Petit Le Mans alongside Cooper MacNeil.

Nasr, one of Porsche’s new signings, is a two-time DPi champion with Action Express Racing and has raced at the 24 Hours of Le Mans twice, but never in a GT car.

The Brazilian, who raced in Formula One between 2015 and 2016, has only ever raced prototypes outside of his single seater career with a few Brazilian Stock Car outings the sole exception.

“I’m very excited to be joining the Porsche family and team Pfaff ahead of the 2022 season,” Nasr said. “I always love going to Daytona and having a shot of winning the Rolex 24; this time will be completely new to in the GTD Pro class. Hopefully it will a smooth transition and a fast learning process with the help of my well-experienced team mates Matt and Mathieu.”

“The prototypes have a special place in my heart, having won two IMSA championships. Adjusting to the driving style of a GT3 car will be the main thing, like the cornering speeds and braking zones.”

“I’m really looking forward to start working with everyone within the team and getting the most out of it –  as a racer I’m always up for a new challenge. Off-season, I’m spending a week completely offline fishing in the Amazon and enjoying some laid-back days in the jungle – something I try to do once a year at least.”

Pfaff Motorsports will be embarking on its fourth season in the IMSA WeatherTech Sportscar Championship. Aside from the 2021 GTD title, the Canadian team also won the WeatherTech Sprint Cup in 2019.

“Our move to GTD Pro signals Pfaff Motorsports’ commitment to become an elite privateer effort, worthy of factory consideration for future opportunities,” said general manager Steve Bortolotti. “We are appreciative of Porsche’s support with factory drivers Matt, Mathieu, and Felipe.”

“They have a proven track record of success individually, and we look forward to working with them and seeing how they gel this season.”
