Toyota GAZOO Racing drivers Mike Conway and Ritomo Miyata will finalise Vasser Sullivan’s two-car driver lineups for the 24 Hours of Daytona on 27-28 January 2024.

As Toyota GR’s reserve driver for the FIA World Endurance Championship Miyata, and the reigning Super Formula and Super GT500 Champion, he will join Parker Thompson, Frankie Montecalvo and Aaron Telitz in the #12 Lexus which competes in the GTD category.

Meanwhile the two-time WEC champion, who has driven for Toyota’s WEC outfit since 2014, will join Jack Hawksworth, Ben Barnicoat and Kyle Kirkwood in the GTD Pro #14 Lexus.

The 2024 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season-opener will commence at the end of January with the historic Daytona 24 endurance race.

Jeff Bal, senior manager of Lexus Motorsports, said: “As the Lexus Racing program continues to grow, we are fortunate to work closely with our global racing partners in GAZOO Racing.

“Opportunities like this allow us to better share resources and apply learnings across multiple series in many of our global racing efforts.

“Adding championship-winning GR drivers Ritomo Miyata and Mike Conway to our Rolex 24 lineup gives Vasser Sullivan and Lexus two solid chances to win this prestigious endurance race.”

Twenty-four year old Miyata is also set to compete in Formula 2 with Rodin Carlin, and the European Le Mans Series with an LMP2 campaign at Cool Racing.

He said: “First, I want to say thank you to the Vasser Sullivan team, Lexus, TRD (Toyota Racing Development) and GAZOO Racing for giving me this opportunity.

“The Rolex 24 at Daytona will be the first time I’ve competed internationally outside of Japanese motorsports, so I’m very excited and looking forward to working with the team.”

Conway has 18 IMSA races to his name since 2013, having claimed eight podium finishes, the latest of which – in last year’s race – he finished third on the GTD Pro podium with Hawksworth and Barnicoat.

“I’m really looking forward to being back with Vasser Sullivan in the Lexus again for the Rolex 24,” Conway said.

“… It will be good to have another crack at Daytona.

“We came up short last year, but hopefully we’ll have things stronger for us.”
