Van der Zande joins Farano at Tower Motorsports in LMP2

Tower Motorsports has announced its driver line-up for its #8 ORECA LMP2 07 in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. John Farano will share full-season duties with Renger van der Zande, who moves into the LMP2 class full-time after a decade in IMSA's premier prototype division.

Van der Zande, the 2016 Prototype Challenge champion, brings 133 WeatherTech Championship starts and 23 victories to the team. Farano, a Canadian driver, is set to make his 50th career start at the Rolex 24 At Daytona and has won the 2022 LMP2 class title.

Australian teenager Griffin Peebles will join for the Michelin Endurance Cup rounds after capturing the European Le Mans Series LMP2 championship with a rival outfit, while Tristan Vautier will drive at the Rolex 24. Team manager Rick Capone said the line-up gives the team a strong chance to fight for wins.
